Death Star lamp

thingiverse

!!!All parts added, read the info below!!! I got a short briefing in 3D-designing last fall and been doing small things after that. As I am a Star Wars fan I wanted to make a Death Star -lamp, and that project got a bit out of hand (considering my drawing skills). 25.09.19 Added the pieces for a wall mounted version, the table and ceiling versions are coming later. I installed a white led strip on the backpanel to make it work as a wall mounted light. In the pics you can see how the material was kinda see through, so I painted the inside until the light got out only from the holes made for it. It also has the option to install colored leds around the ray, which I have not done yet myself. Needs some soldering and Im pretty lazy in things like that. 28.09.2019: Some more info before I get the lamp printed as a full ball: the wall version was printed last spring, and I can not remember the settings used. It took a long time to print and its 20cm in diameter and supports were used. The color was Real filament PLA Silver and I think it fits it perfectly. I now got the filament ordered to print the table version, so as soon as it arrives I can start printing the halves. Some smaller parts I have already cut from the desing and printed to see if they work as intended so Im pretty confident I wont have big problems. PS. I know the ray of the death star is green - but I have a wife who thinks the green looks ugly and red is much better, so I had to make some adjustments for mine. Hope to get those colored leds in their place soon. 30.10.2019: Got the table stand printed finally and it turned out perfect. Haven't printed the halves that fit together yet, but the exact same size wall mounted Death Star half sits on it neatly. Hoping to get time to print hobby projects soon so I could continue with this and get the actual Death Star printed! 26.11.2019: Got it printed and I'm pretty satisfied with the outcome. Immediately noticed some minor upgrades, but I think this can be consider done already. I'll edit the stl files and tweak it a bit more, but this is what it looks like at the moment: https://youtu.be/m-mk8QsvYT4
