About the lighting:
💡 For lighting, I use this complete LED kit, simple to install and perfectly suited to my models:
👉 LED strip kit 1.5 m – Neutral white (Leroy Merlin)
📦 For a clean and functional finish, I have also designed a cable cover compatible with all my AR shells, available for download here:
✨ Tip: To improve light diffusion, I recommend adding a piece of aluminum adhesive tape to the bottom of the box. The result is more uniform and luminous!
🛠️ Tips for perfect adhesion in 3D printing:
Carefully clean your build plate before each print. Grease residue, dust, or fingerprints can impair adhesion and cause detachments.
Check build plate calibration: a well-leveled build plate ensures a uniform and well-adhered first layer.
Use an appropriate adhesion surface: depending on your material, apply a thin layer of glue stick, an adhesive spray, or a specific tape (e.g., Kapton, BuildTak).
Correctly adjust the build plate temperature to promote adhesion depending on the material used (PLA, ABS, PETG, etc.).
Reduce the first layer print speed: a slower speed allows for better filament adhesion to the build plate.
Provide a "skirt" or a "brim" in your slicer to stabilize the first layer and limit warping.
