Description
Inspired by oldschool glass bulbs I created in same shapes these LED bulbs covers. It is suited for 5mm diameter LED diods with cylinder shape (flat top).
We are using these - https://www.alza.cz/retlux-rxl-263-ret-8fc-100l-10-5m-mc-tm-d5714800.htm
There are 3 types - snowman, cone and tree shape. You can print them all or just pick one you like. I used vase mode printing which turned out great, however it took more time to print f.e. 50pcs of them, so I just placed like 20 on bed in slicer and let it do it's thing.
Recommended settings:
1 perimeter
0.2mm layer
1 bottom layer + brim (you will need to remove it after print)
Transparent filament (best PLA - depends on heat of your LEDs)
It turned out great and filled our tree with nostalgy.
In case of any tips and improvements let me know! :)
