LED lights for Mini Kossel

thingiverse

Illuminate your print bed without adding more weight to your effector! This solution uses self-adhesive LED strip lights available from most electronics stores. Be sure to get the ones you can cut to length. You will need (1) 25mm strip for each bracket (3 LEDs each strip). You will also need (2) 4-5mm longer bolts for your stepper motor for each bracket you add. I recommend one for each the X and Y tower. Instructions Print as many brackets you want to use. Note: Mounting one on the Z tower is a bit of overkill, er, brightness. Remove the top 2 bolts from each stepper motor and replace with bolts that are 4-5mm longer. For example, I used 12mm bolts in place of 8mm bolts. Peel and stick the LED strips to the brackets. Wire the LEDs through a switch and 12V main.
