Description

Update: January 19, 2025

  1. New Print Profile for A1 (Bedslingers)
    • Supports have been added to stabilize the helixes, reducing wobble during high-speed printing.
  2. New Print Profile for A1 Mini
    • Features the same support structure as the A1, but the model has been scaled to 75%.
  3. Base and Top Added for Non-AMS Printing
    • This adjustment reduces printing time by 11 hours.
  4. Umbrella Logo Print Profile
    • Reimu has created a print profile allowing the umbrella logo to be printed separately and glued onto the base and top.
    • I've tested this method and now prefer it over the lengthy AMS alternative.

 

Immerse yourself in the fascinating world of physics and design with this T-Virus Lamp model, a perfect tool for demonstrating the principles of light diffusion, material science, and energy transfer. The helix, crafted from glow-in-the-dark filament, not only provides an excellent example of phosphorescent materials but also creates a mesmerizing visual effect, blending education with sci-fi inspiration.

A1 Mini version with Bambu RGB LED Strip lights (link in makers supply section below)

Step into the world of Resident Evil with this brilliantly designed T-Virus Lamp. Combining sci-fi aesthetics with practical lighting, this model is the perfect addition to any fan's collection. Whether you want to showcase it as a standalone display piece or light it up to create an eerie ambiance, this lamp brings the infamous T-Virus to life like never before.

 

Features:

  • Glowing Helix Tubes:
    The hollow helix design diffuses light beautifully, creating a glowing, radioactive effect. Perfectly sized to fit 12mm LED strip lights, this centerpiece can shine in customizable colors to match your mood.
    • Recommended Filaments:
      • White filament for versatile LED color effects.
      • Translucent filament for bold, vibrant illumination.
      • Glow-in-the-dark filament for an eerie glow in the dark.
  • Iconic Umbrella Corporation Design:
    The base and top of the lamp feature the iconic Umbrella Corporation logo, debossed for easy painting or AMS printing. Screw-on lids ensure effortless assembly and a sleek finish.
  • Optional Outer Cylinder:
    For added realism, include the transparent outer cylinder that encapsulates the helix tubes. Print in spiral vase mode using transparent filament for a professional touch.

 

Printing Guidelines:

  • Support-Free Helix Tubes:
    Designed for easy printing with no supports required. Use a brim for better adhesion.
  • Printer Recommendations:
    • CoreXY printers (e.g., X1C, P1S) are ideal for smooth and precise results.
    • Slower speeds on bed slinger printers can also achieve excellent prints by reducing wobble issues.
  • Customizable Finishes:
    Use AMS for multi-color details, or opt for a single-color print and paint the debossed Umbrella logo for a clean, polished look.

 

Lighting Tips:

  • Best LED Choices:
    COB LEDs are recommended for smooth, continuous lighting without visible hotspots. Doubling strips back-to-back ensures even brighter, 360-degree illumination.
  • Heat Awareness:
    Be mindful of LED heat, as prolonged use may warp the plastic components.
  • Assembly Assistance:
    Threading LEDs through the helix tubes is made simple with the included tutorial video.

Hello, that’s such a shame as it looks like one of the helix printed fine too. it’s not recommended to use the profile for the A1 printers due to having too much wobble at the last 20% of the print. I recommend printing them with much slower speed settings. you could also add supports to give them more stability while printing.

Thanks cruise292 it’s because the user printed it on a A1 printer which isn’t recommended unless the print speed is reduced.

That’s great. They do take time but better than hand painting. the bottle I used was a 2litre Pepsi but there may be a better suited brand I just didn’t have much to test with.

Absolutely impossible to print. At ~80% one of the spirals just gets knocked over. it’s not an adhesion problem as I’m using the Cool SuperTrack plate on a P1S with PLA Glow filament. In my third attempt I tried to print em one by one, at 50% speed. Still knocked over at the exact same moment.

Sorry to hear you’re experiencing issues, but I wouldn’t say it’s impossible. I’ve uploaded a profile that includes supports to provide stability for the helix during printing. Perhaps try using that profile instead.

I’m sorry for calling it impossible. I was a bit frustrated as I already baught the LED strip for it. What print profile are you referring to? I don’t see it in the Handy app

printed fine, used green glow in the dark for tubes. I do recommend getting 2x the length of cob lighting and sticking them back to back for a better lighting effect. Thanks for the print.

Absolutely agree! However, with twice the LEDs comes twice the heat, so be mindful of how long they're left on. Thanks for the boostie!

Printing at 75% in PETG, no problem! The lids close well, I just need to print the Umbrella logo in red and white and assemble the already printed helical tubes

Supportless and flawless helical tube prints on my P1S Printed at 75% of the original size, which I found too large I will print the upper and lower bases with the other profile that prints the color logo separately
