About this 3D model

This is a lightbox I made upon request. I make these lightboxes with the front being the lid, this accomplishes several things: Less waste, if you end up with stringing or other imperfections in the face, it's less time and material to re-print. It's stronger as far as the colours melting together and creating weak points on colour changes. It allows you to place the light strips around the sides at the very back of the box to allow for more light diffusion and more even coverage. you can use more colours; you don’t need to have the sides colour (usually black) on the case. Additionally, I add a full 0.2mm layer of white on the back of the face, this does a few things: It strengthens the areas of colour separation with a solid layer on the back It helps to diffuse the light a little better giving more consistent lighting It fills in small gaps in areas where the model may taper to an area smaller than the nozzle size and that will produce a void which the leds in behind will be very visible through. I hope you enjoy this model; I will be releasing more as time permits; I encourage requests in the comments and will do my best to accommodate as time permits. Materials used: LED Strip - (choose non waterproof, I use 5m black) https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256805112069857.html Controller - (choose 24key USB) https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256805742867945.html You will need to do some soldering to use these components efficiently, I personally remove the wires from the controller and the light strip and solder 4 “header throughole" pins across from the controller to the strip to make it low profile and cost effective.
