About this 3D model

Well, here I am in my tubby again And my tubby's all filled with water and nice fluffy suds And I've got my soap and washcloth to wash myself And I've got my nifty scrub brush to help me scrub my back And I've got a big fluffy towel to dry myself when I'm done But there's one other thing that makes tubby time the very best time of the whole day And do you know what that is? It's a very special friend of mine my very favorite little pal Rubber duckie you're the one You make bath time lots of fun Rubber duckie I'm awfully fond of you Rubber duckie joy of joys When I squeeze you, you make noise Rubber duckie you're my very best friend it's true Oh, every day when I make my way to the tubby I find a little fellow who's cute and yellow and chubby Rub-a-dub-dubby Rubber duckie, you're so fine And I'm lucky that you're mine Rubber duckie, I'm awfully fond of you Hey, rubber duckie would you like me to scrub your back with my little nifty scrub brush?

Scrub his little duckie tummy Oh, he's ticklish oh-hoo Oh, every day when I make my way to the tubby I find a little fellow who's cute and yellow and chubby Rub-a-dub-dubby! Rubber duckie, you're so fine And I'm lucky that you're mine Rubber duckie, I'd like a whole pond of Rubber duckie, I'm awfully fond of you How do I make this thing?! Easy! Just follow these general steps, and you'll be lighting up your life in no time. Pay attention, as there will be a quiz later. Download the model to your computer or open it in the Handy app. I suggest downloading it and opening it so you can remove the purge line (Google is your friend here). I also strongly suggest using the included profile, as it contains many little tweaks to prevent problems that are common with these types of lamps (gaps, wisps, separation, etc.) Confirm whether you have enough AMS's to handle all of the colors. I do my best to keep my lamps to 4 colors or less, but sometimes that's just not possible, and a second AMS will be needed. Alternatively, you can build in pauses and conduct manual filament swaps, but you'll need to research how to do that on your own, because I'm not good at that. Ensure your filament colors are in the correct AMS slots that corresponds to the model. Hint: I generally arrange my colors in alphabetical order, because I'm weird like that. Just be cautious of wildcards like "light blue". All of my models come with two different back plates. One will have a hole for those of you that want to hang the lamp on a wall. The other will not have a hole, and that's intended for those of you who will be placing the lamp on a desk or a table or a cat. You do NOT need to print both back plates (or do, I don't care, I'm not your mother). Pick whichever one you want. Some lamps will also come with a base. This is to keep your lamp from tipping over like a drunk toddler if you're placing it on a flat surface. If you're hanging it on a wall, you don't need the base. I strongly recommend using a textured PEI plate, as that will do an excellent job in hiding the print lines, and that's what these prints are tweaked for. But you can use whatever fancy plate you want -- again, I'm not your mom. Once you've got your AMS set up and are ready to go, hit that big ol' PRINT button for the lamp face and then your back plate. I suggest disabling Flow Calibration. Go make a sandwich. You should now have the lamp face and your back plate of choice, and it's assembly time! This first step is optional, but I would suggest picking up aluminum (or aluminium for some reason if you're British) foil tape. Yes, it comes in tape form! Line the inner side of the back plate with the sticky stuff, as it will help tremendously in making your light brighter and with a more even and consistent light. I personally tear off small strips, apply, and then flatten/smooth it out with the edge of a credit card, and repeat until the entire side is shiny silver. Next you're going to want to buy yourself some LEDs. The options here are many and varied, and I can't decide for you (see mom comment above). Decide what types of light you want. Do you want basic white light? Great! Do you want cool white or warm white? Do you want it to flash or dance to the music? Do you want a switch? Do you want a remote? Do you want it to be USB or higher voltage? Have you changed your mind and want it to be multi-colored or able to change color to the seasons or your mood? What I can do is make some suggestions. First, there are several kinds of LEDs that are typically used in these types of lamps. The first is a basic LED strip, which is a roll of circuit board tape with a sticky back-end. These are the simplest and easiest to use. Next is what's called a COB strip, which is basically the same, but instead of an LED every inch, it has a solid band of light. Then there's neon COBs, which are self-explanatory.
