Lite Brite Pegs

Recreating the Lite Brite signs from the movie ELF and didn't want to buy a bunch of Lite Brite pegs, so I made my own. There was some definite shrinkage during my printing, but they still work. The red and blue in the picture were PETG and the “clear” was PLA. I pictured them alongside the actual ones from the toy just to show the size comparison and how much light they pass. I printed them with one wall and no infill to try and pass more light. They do glow well if you have a light directly behind them, but refracted light isn't caught too well. There are two models. One has homemade supports that need to be clipped off, and the other is just the peg. The supports created by the slicer didn't work well for me, but I include the “peg only” model in case your slicer/printer does a better job.
