So I'm still rather obsessed with making lightboxes, and wanted an easy way to see how different LEDs and different materials would look for the translucent aspects of the print. While I was working on saving a template to streamline the process for the boxes themselves, I realized I could just make a miniature box to find out.
The box has holes on two sides and a little retainer clip in the middle which will hold an LED strip in position for where I would position it in a finished box. It's a bit loose, but that's so you won't accidentally damage an SMD strip when inserting/removing it. The accent strip on the box isn't strictly necessary, but since that's how I print the final product it's how I printed the test box.
The test strip prints a series of 0.20mm steps in 20x20mm squares, ranging from 0.20mm thick to 1.6mm thick with 100% infill and the same line widths I'd use on a final print. The box has a loosely recessed lip to hold it in place. Insert the LED strip and drop in
