Autobot Transformers LED Nightlight/Lamp
Autobot I printed on my dual extruder... I took a JPEG of the logo and traced it in Solidworks... I then ext...ruded and filleted the Autobot and saved it as its own STL to be used in dual extrusion... I then designed a plate around the Autobot, added holes for screws and save that as its own STL... Lastly, I design a shell to go around the plate and Autobot, the shell has aligned screw holes so it can be fastened to the plate...
I then printed the shell in regular ole black PLA on my Rep 2... And I did the dual extrusion using the same black PLA for the plate and I used Bendlay (link below) to print the Autobot... I used Bendlay because it is extremely translucent (91% of light passes through)...
I then hooked up an RGB LED strip, wrapped it around the inner shell and hooked it up to an IR receiver so it can be controlled with a remote...
I've also made the following logo's, designs for LED hookup...
