Structure for a 4 litophane lamp.
** 2021-04-12 updated: added switch photo**
2020-04-01 updated: added a new cover without switch holes.
2018-12-18 updated: added a foot object.
It's designed for 4 96x96x3mm litophanes. You can generate the litophanes using http://3dp.rocks/lithophane/ or any software (cura will do it fine)
I use Cura for printing litophanes. Just drop your jpg file and set a 0,3mm base, 2,7mm height and "darker is higher". Print at 0.1mm layer height and 100% infill.
I usually preprocess the pictures (delete or soften the background, increase contrast, convert to B&W) and draw a 3mm black frame around the photo to get a thick border in the litophane, so I get a 90x90 picture with 3mm frame around -> 96x96mm litophane.
Feet (pata_15x15) are glued to the base. Add one of those "adhesive glue dots"
For lighting I use a 1w led, or a 50cm led strip.
