Description

Snap-on LED sign

Perfect for garage or workshop

Assembled Dimensions:

Width: 26.75 inches

Height: 8.25 inches

Depth: 1.25 inches

Requirements:

-4m white LED strip (Aliexpress)

-12v 2a power supply (Aliexpress)

-5.5*2.1mm DC Male Cable Connector 2pin (AliExpress)

-3 M3x16 screw (Optional, each letter could be glued with CA glue)

-8 M3 Bolt (Optional, each letter could be glued with CA glue)

Instructions:

1- Print all body STLs. For better result use ironing or set the top surface pattern to Hilbert Curve (add Height range modifier to the last layer only to save on print time)

2- Join all 3 body parts with screws

3- Install the DC Male cable connector

4- Solder the positive and negative wired to the LED strip terminal

5- Stick the led strip around each letter below the letter insert line

6- Print the letter insert STL

You have 2 differents options here: 1.2mm or 0.8mm wall. Depending on your filament you might need ticker wall to get better result when the LED are on. A good test would be to print the “Dash” with both size wall and decide the better result.

7- I usually add some hot glue here and there on the LED strip to be sure it doesn't unstick from the surface.

8- Insert all the letter inserts

the print went smooth but the attachment to the on should be beefed up a little and the led channels made a little bigger

How did you get it together?

@LOXCreations

Perfect, I will post an update later to fix this issue

@mharris134

I screwed them together with m3 nuts and bolts but the connection to the on should have two holes I think or maybe a dovetail

@bubba_shimp23

Printed this as a friend wanted a sign to put on top of his tool chest... I think it looks more OE than OE 😂 Edit : I just printed one for myself.... too good not to (Mine in Red/Black)

The designer has replied

@LOXCreations

Link is now up to date

@hackbraten

How did you make the glow so uniform and not spotty? What LED Strip did you use (link has expired)?

@mharris134

Use COB LED strip. BTG Lighting on aliexpress has some pretty good ones.

Just concerned about the -ON only held by one 3mm bolt, but super cool

is a good design. I ended up cutting strips of the cob leds and soldered them into each. I would have taken some pictures but I got too excited and glued the letters on lol. thanks for the awesome model
