All parts were printed with a 0.6mm nozzle and no parts need supports (depending on how you orientate and slice them).&nbsp;&nbsp;

After a few days of designing, thinking about it and printing a few samples, the time has finally come.&nbsp;Let me introduce you to the push on led bar for the A1!&nbsp;The LED bar is printed in a total of four parts, the housing and the reflector each consist of two parts. The housing is glued together after printing, the reflector is optional and only necessary if the housing is printed in a dark color.In addition, the reflector also reinforces the housing when glued together. I recommend using the reflector.I printed the housing with grey sunlu pla matte and the reflector with white sunlu pla matte.&nbsp;Before gluing together, it is important to check the edges of the parts to be glued, some sanding may be necessary here so that there are no gaps at the gluing point.&nbsp;For gluing i recommend this glue <a target="_blank" href="https://amzn.to/3S6gwje" rel="nofollow noopener">https://amzn.to/3S6gwje</a> (affiliate link), but you can also use super glue. Don´t use too much glue, especially try to not let the glue coming out at the outside of the housing.&nbsp;After gluing together, all you have to do is glue the LED strip in, any LED strip can be used here, I have linked an example here.&nbsp;5v USB Strip<a target="_blank" href="https://amzn.to/41Nsj9s" rel="nofollow noopener">https://amzn.to/41Nsj9s</a> (affiliate link)&nbsp;Please only mount it the direction shown in the pictures, if mounted with the LED to the front side it could crash with the printing head.&nbsp;Please let me know if you have suggestions for improvement, happy printing :-)&nbsp;
