Overwatch Backlit Logo

thingiverse

Overwatch logo that is backlit by WS2812B Addressable LEDs and can be hung with a screw to the wall. Designed to be printed on the 300x300 bed of the CR10, idk if scalling it up for the S5 or anything larger that the regular CR-10 will allow the parts to snap together so try at your own risk! Parts snap together, no screws or glue to assemble the parts. Parts have .3mm gap to give a snug fit. I noticed that the actual logo includes a chamfer. So I included both the flat(the one in the picture) and the chamfered version(I haven't printed it yet. It shouldn't need supports for the lip but your printer may vary.). I soldered the LEDs with a sight arch to contour with the logo. For the upper Arch, I soldered 3 LEDs together and made a mirror set glued 2 of them back to back (that's hard to explain) see the picture. Glue the LED upside down for a brighter shine. Regular 5050 RGB strips can be used if you don't want to mess with coding or don't know your way around WS2812B LEDs. But I encourage you learn! These LEDs allow animations like the one in the video. It adds a more cool factor. lol. I bought the controller and LEDs from Amazon. You'll need exactly 60LEDs. Check the Print section to see what settings I used to print. You'll need: ~300g of Black for the Main face of the logo ~300g of Clear/translucent white for the rest WS2812B 60LEDs (1Meter): <a target="_blank" href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01D1DRJ0G/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B01D1DRJ0G&linkCode=as2&tag=michaeltranst-20&linkId=a2c07bcff72bbe1c18ec75b444361714">WS2812B LED Strip 1M 60 Pixels/M</a><img src="//ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com/e/ir?t=michaeltranst-20&l=am2&o=1&a=B01D1DRJ0G" width="1" height="1" border="0" alt="" style="border:none !important; margin:0px !important;" /> WS2812B 300LED (5Meters) **recommended if you acidentally burn a pixel...I might have done that...: https://amzn.to/2qgW7df WS2812B RGB Controller: https://amzn.to/2uSvD7e 5V 4A power supply (Logo will consume 3.6A MAX but better safe than sorry): https://amzn.to/2qipgVv **These are affiliate links.
