This upload contains a plain lithophane pumpkin. The pumpkin was created using custom Python code that maps image data directly onto the pumpkin geometry rather than onto a standard flat, cylindrical, or spherical shape.
Lighting and Assembly
Two lighting options are supported:
LED tealight D37.2 × 36.6 mm
USB lamp kit 001
Both are easy to find on Amazon, AliExpress, and similar shops.
For the LED tealight, remove the light module from its plastic shell before assembly. Insert a thin object, such as a guitar pick, next to the switch and carefully lever the light out. The assembly video/GIF shows how this is done.
The stem attaches with a bayonet lock. The bottom cover uses the same system. Two bottom covers are included, one for each lighting option. A small locking tool is included to help tighten and remove the bottom cover. The assembly video/GIF shows the full process.
Print Details
Material: PLA
Layer height: 0.2 mm
Perimeters: 4 (since it is a lithophane)
Supports: Required inside the pumpkin and for the bayonet lock at the bottom
Be aware that a lot of internal support material is required, which may be difficult to remove.
Files and Slicing
I recommend using the provided 3MF file, which includes support blockers to prevent supports from being generated on the outside of the pumpkin.
The 3MF file contains four plates:
Plate 1: Pumpkin
Plates 2–3: Bottom covers for the two lighting options
Plate 4: Stem (intended to be printed in a different color)
Remixing and Other Projects
Remixes are welcome. If you're interested in modifying the pumpkin or creating your own designs, feel free to message me. I'll happily share the CAD files and Python code on request.
