Description

The Rocket is a mid-century lamp in a rocket-like shape! The base can be made as a tripod with three legs, or you can add more legs (see the one in the pics with six legs!) An E12 or C7 light fixture will fit it.

The shade should be printed vertically in vase mode. 

The parts for the base are easy to print flat on the bed. Just duplicate the legs in the slicer as many times as you need to. 

[If you find that the legs warp – a good solution for this is to use “helper discs” to print them. See the pic posted here, or see this video for more info on doing that with Prusa Slicer.

The legs should friction-fit onto the circle base, but this may depend on your settings. If they don't friction-fit, a touch of glue should solve that. And if they are too tight, a bit of sanding or deburring will fix it. 

The lamp is quite small and lightweight, so feel free to upsize it and make a larger one if you like! :)

 Filaments I used:

  • Shade: Prusament Vanilla White PLA
  • Base: Inland Turquoise PLA
