This pencil cup holder is based off my original "Small Lithophane Lamp" thing, found here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2624346
After printing a few lamps, I realized that these could make nice pencil cup holders as well. You could also put a tea light in for a cool effect. The original lamp design is nice, but this is much simpler and no electronics are required. I am printing these out for another STEM class that I am teaching on 3d printing, for Eastwood Middle School in May, 2018.
I improved the design from the original lamp. The lid fits much better on the top, and no glue is needed to keep everything in place.
Instructions:
1. Print out 4 Lithophanes, using the instructions below, ensuring you have the proper size. I usually print two blanks for the sides, and two with logos for the front and back. Do whatever you think you will like.
2. Print out the Base. No supports needed, use 40% infill.
3. Print out the Lid. Rotate in your slicer 180 degrees so the cutout
