Ghost Display / LED Backlit Accent Piece

Bring an eerie, floating glow to your desk, shelf, or mantel with this LED-backlit ghost display! Designed with detailed spooky cutouts and an integrated base, this tabletop piece delivers a striking silhouette effect day or night.

Originally conceptualized as a custom woodworking project, this model has been fully adapted for 3D printing with precise tolerances, hidden wire routing, and customizable lighting options. Print it as a standalone desk accent, or use it as a physical template guide for scroll saw woodworking!

Key Features:

• Precision Fit & Wire Management: The base features built-in alignment insets and tabs to securely slot the ghost upright, along with a discreet pass-through channel to route power cords neatly out the back.

• Integrated LED Channels: The rear side features a hollowed-out cavity designed to house LED light strips, casting a dramatic backlit glow through the flame-like cutouts.

• Optional Rear Light Cover: Includes a matching backplate that fastens with standard hardware to direct all light forward and conceal internal wiring.

• Woodworker & Hybrid Friendly: Print directly for a sleek modern finish, or use it as a physical guide for cutting real wood!
