Print instructions
Assembling the parts
- Print both the bottom and the top parts.
- Use a soldering iron to insert brass threaded inserts to the top part. The model is designed for M3 screws.
- Add 3 segments of a LED strip to the base. (You can use 1 or 2 segments if you don't want the light that bright.)
- Use M3 screws to screw the top and the bottom part to each other.
Creating the acrylic plate
Design a pattern for the acrylic part and scale it so the mounting width does not exceed 28mm. Use a jigsaw to cut the outer form from a 3mm acrylic plate, then a rotary tool (e.g. Dremel) to carve the pattern.
