Description
This is a remix of SuperInfraMan's great Minecraft torch nightlight with a few changes:
I removed the base plate from the original model and designed a separate 'cleat' to mount the torch to the wall. This means all the fixings/screws are hidden away inside the torch for a cleaner look.
I made a cavity in the torch head leaving enough room to insert a coiled-up strip of RGB leds and added a lip to help keep the strip in place.
There was no tolerance built into the original model meaning I had a fair bit of sanding to do before I could put the pieces together once printed. I trimmed a quarter of a millimetre off of all the faces of parts that slide into another. It should now be a snug fit for most printers.
26/08/2018. Thanks to a suggestion by smma I added another base piece which you can use if you want to have the torch sitting upright or just use it handheld.
