3D Printed Lithophane Lamp This is a tutorial to create a lithophane sided lamp using a 3D printer. Full instructions available on Instructable: https://www.instructables.com/id/3D-Printed-Lithophane-Lamp/ According to wikipedia, "A lithophane (French: lithophanie) is an etched or molded artwork in very thin translucent porcelain that can only be seen clearly when back lit with a light source". In our case, instead of porcelain, the material will be a 3D printable material. For example, PLA. With the lamp off, the image will not be visible correctly. When the lamp is switched on the images will reveal. Material list - Dark PLA for the structure - Bright PLA for the lithophanes (Preferably white) - Bulb holder - 5x 3mm screws and nuts (You can use glue instead) - Tape - Bulb
