The shade began to degrade, and while I wish it had stayed, it looked flayed; the repair was delayed until today('d).

This lamp has been floating around my homes since the early aughts. At some point, I used an incandescent that generated too much heat and it all went downhill from there.
The Lamp
Manufactured in February of 2001, it's listed as “Portable Lamp”, part № E200298, UL listing BJ-17-468. It has a gooseneck and a cord switch. The opening at the top of the shade is 2".
The Shade
Originally, it was conical, but I used a paraboloid instead. It attaches with a twist-lock and is then secured by a screw.
Printing
Material
I printed this in PETG for the heat resistance.
Settings
It took about an hour and a half on my Ender 3 Pro.
- Vase mode
- .8mm nozzle
- 1mm walls
- .32mm layer heights.
Post-Processing
Since this is in vase mode, it has a bottom. I knocked it out and trimmed it off, but you can use your slicer settings to forego a bottom. I used it for bed adhesion.
Install the lampshade and mark where the screw hole is. Drill a small pilot hole for it so as not to split the plastic.
