Description
This star lamp design is meant to fit this LED under-cabinet puck light from Amazon, or this other identical one but without the dimmer, and it's made up of a ‘base’ and a ‘shade’. The shade gets its unique look from the ‘fresnel lens' type of features and being printed all with perimeters, rather than any rectilinear infill. The puck light friction-fits into the base piece, which has an eyelet for wall-mounting.
The light puck simply pushes in from the back of the base, like this:
There's a tiny 45 deg lip around the top of the opening in the base, so the light will just push in all the way until it hits that lip. It should be flush on the back like this, with the wire able to sit in the recess:
The base has ‘fingers’ that grab the corresponding cutouts in the shade, so the shade just presses and lightly snaps into place.
Only the base needs a few minor supports for the wire channel as shown, and it should be printed with the back flat on the build plate. I used white Hatchbox PETG:
The shade should be printed all in perimeters, so I simply set the perimeter value to a very high value, like 1000. In order to have the translucent properties as seen in the pictures, I used clear white Hatchbox PETG. It does not need any supports and should be printed as shown:
The assembled light looks like this:
Enjoy!
