Description

Introducing my first serious 3D-Print art-piece and design: Space Kid Dreams of Jupiter - a Shadowbox Nightlight. This design is the perfect nightlight for kids who are interested in space.

 

The design includes:

  • 10 x panels designed to be printed as 3x0.2mm layer panels.
    • I printed with glow in the dark PLA, with the back star layer translucent Purple to give a very light tint to white light.
    • Any light colour should work fine, with white giving good results.
    • Matte filaments may darken your lamp overly.
    • If you have good adhesion, these can be printed without any rafts
    • Use Arachne Wall Generator Settings
  • A bottom and top housing
    • Simple low profile design
    • Looks great in translucent
    • Friction fit seams sized for 10 x panels
    • Bottom housing includes socket mechanism for light-strip scaffold
  • Starshield back-panel
    • Designed for Matte filament to contain light and highlight top and bottom housing
    • Includes star holes that cast a dim star pattern (better results if you swap to point source light)
    • Includes hole for LED
    • Cutout to seal hole if hole not desired
  • Light-strip scaffold
    • convenient socket lock scaffold with holes for wrapping LED lights
  • Spacer Tool

You must bring your own LED solution. It is designed by default for a RGB LED Light-strip (with remote). You could use the official Bambu options although there are a few other options. Depending how bright you want it you might not need a very long strip.

 

The goal for this design were:

  • to create my first real design!
  • Include a housing and everything needed.
  • make a shadowbox design suitable for fancy boys and fancy girls.
  • Be efficient with filament
  • No needed glue! The model can be assembled with a friction fit.
  • The LED strips are housed securely inside in a suspended scaffold.
  • Custom spacing tool included! To help with assembly.

hi, no it is Jupiter - you can see the red spot storm I added. Jupiter also has rings! though admittedly they are smaller and darker than Saturn's
