Description

Note: January 23rd, 2024 Update.

 I have corrected the orientation of the frame so you no longer need to Mirror them to have the correct.  Updated Jan 23rd, 2024.   I appreciate the support and those the let me know there was an issue,   it's been corrected in the updated print profile.    I you previously downloaded this model,  please download the updated version.    Thanks.

 

VW Bus with sunset and palm trees, this is a lithophane lightbox. the brighter the LED lights used the better, I used a double row along the back perimeter and it looks fantastic with the light on, even better in the dark, really pops.

 

this is a 2 part print

 

Profile 1: Lightbox frame and the back. I suggest using a PEI plate and print face down, you can add a brim, but I just used the liquid glue and it printed fine without lifting. The back has a white reflector build into it. the parts are already oriented properly in the files.

 

Profile 2: Lithophane front panel. I printed on PEI plate with liquid glue as well. I used the bambu CMYK bundle for this print. there is a negative part over the lithophane panel that will trim and leave a lip on the lithophane so it'll fit in the frame properly, it's tight but fits perfectly. just go slow when pushing it in. add a little superglue around the edge on the back from the inside.

light box is in wrong orientation. To correct the issue mirror both parts of the light box on the x axis.

What do you mean, wrong orientation? I'll look at it when I get home. The lithophane prints face up. And the frame is face down.

I have just printed it as well and when you goto assemble it the Lithophane won’t go in. I had to do the same and mirror the box and back and have to reprint. apart from that it was perfect
