You can change the body color as you like

Overview

This sign is designed for a bimaterial look. The main body acts as a robust light-blocking structure, while the white inserts serve as light diffusers. The letters protrude 3 mm from the sign's body, creating an impactful 3D effect that adds depth even when unlit.

Features

• 3D "Pop-out" Effect: Letters protrude 3 mm from the frame for a premium, high-contrast look.
• Optimized Diffusion: The white inserts are designed to be printed with specific settings to ensure a uniform glow without shadows.
• Versatility: Can be wall-mounted or used as a freestanding desk lamp.

Equipped with rear holes for hanging.

Clean Design: Internal channels provided for LED strips (5V or 12V COB strips recommended for best results).

Printing Tips

• Materials:
  • Body/Frame: PLA or PETG (Black or any opaque color).
  • Diffusers: White PLA ("Matte" or "White Translucent" are ideal for maximum light output).
• Supports: Already placed where needed
