<p>This is a shade that can be used as a pendant lamp shade or as a bedside one (or decorative) with the given risers. Use E14 socket. Avoid tungsten bulbs and generally bulbs that get too hot.</p><p>The socket mount is spring loaded. Press the four elastic ends of the socket mount and place it inside the shade, 3-4 rows from the start.</p><p>I want to thank Erik Es for sharing his idea about creating this pattern. You can find the technique for this special pattern: <a href="http://www.erikes.nl/ES-CAGE_PRINTING.htm">http://www.erikes.nl/ES-CAGE_PRINTING.htm</a></p><h3>Print instructions</h3><p>For this size print I suggest 0.8mm or 1mm nozzle. If you print wood filament with smaller nozzles it may not be strong enough. You can use PrusaSlicer or CURA.&nbsp;</p><p><strong>PrusaSlicer</strong></p><p>(Thanks to <i>Awong1214</i> user for the tip)</p><p>In <i>Layers and Perimeters</i> tick <i>Spiral Vase</i>.
