This is my first remix, hope I didn't make a huge mistake.
The Lithophane Display with Multiple Configurations and Storage Caddy
from JRSly is great. Easy to print and put together and looks really elegant.
I prefer printing with PLA. PETG frustrates me and I find it damages my printer. The problem with PLA is heat and I was finding the original Lithophane Box was getting really warm and reaching the glass transition temperature hence a simple remix.
The base for the light has hollow slots. Wrap the LED string around so the light is suspended in the air overlapping the holes. Use super glue to keep it together.
The light base works as a chimeny drawing the heat up. The lid has a vent at the top to release the hot air and as an added bonus you get to project a snowflake.
Hope someone finds this useful.
