Lithophane Stand USB Light 180mm

Last crawled date: 4 years, 2 months ago

UPDATE Added a v2 that brings the LED light a little bit closer for those lithophanes that dont have a much height and you can see the led poking out above the lithophane. This is about as close as I could go before the lighting would start creating hot spots and not fully illuminate the entire lithophane with the particular USB led light I'm using in the picture.
I was looking to use those cheap touch USB lights from Amazon for Lithophane lighting. Found a lighting mount that worked pretty universally with a bunch of USB cables I had and was relatively low material. I wanted it to hold bigger lithophanes than 150mm and I like the ToolMoon 180mm stand (but those lights are a little too expensive with the shipping and wait time from China) so I decided to combine the 2 together. I also opened up the oval cut out a tad more to cut down on a small bit of material without really changing the look too much. Now I can get 10 of these usb lights off amazon next day for same price as one toolmoon light and use them with all the extra usb cables I have laying around the house....hope this helped someone else out!
I just printed it in PLA with about 20 or so infill, whatever floats your boat. You can refer to the toolmoon thing (attached via the remix sources) to get the exact lithophane setting, but like i mentioned its 180mm
