revolving Hexagon for lithophanes

Description

This is intended for 6 lithophanes 78 x 78 mm thickness 2,8 mm + 1 round lithophane 122 mm diameter. parts printing : 6 corner.stl 2 Hexagon2Round.stl 1 lithoplateV2.stl 1 Lithobase.stl lithophane printing : I heard that some people print the lithophane vertically. We don't. We print them flat on the bed. Personnally we use Cura version 3.6.0 (never really succeed with more recent version), I set up the most important settings first (layer height 0.1mm, infill 100%, print thin wall, ...) then open an image, input the desired thickness and size of the lithophane and let Cura do the job (compute both the .stl and the .gcode). assembly : Before offering it as a gift we put a drop of glue at the bottom and the top of each corner. Doing so the "lampshade" doesn't break apart when you handle it. The rest of the parts don't accept any glue (otherwise it won't rotate and you won't be able to change the light bulb). As the space for the cable is a little narrow we added 3 pads under the base in order to have a nice sitting of the lamp. Bill of Material : 1 standard socket for lampshade 1 standard cable with switch and plug 1 light bulb 3 pads (like for the chairs) - optional
