David - Lamp

Introducing the "David - Lamp," a monumental piece that reimagines Michelangelo's iconic David head as a layered, functional light sculpture. This ambitious project transforms a classical masterpiece into a modern statement lamp through innovative 3D printing construction!Design Concept:The David head is deconstructed into 17 distinct horizontal layers. These layers are precisely stacked during assembly using temporary spacers and an alignment tool, creating gaps that allow light to escape horizontally. An internal shader diffuses light upwards, illuminating the structure from within and creating a dramatic, ethereal glow that highlights the classic form in a completely new way.Key Features:Layered Reinterpretation of Michelangelo's David Head.Unique Light Diffusion through horizontal gaps and internal shader.Large and Impressive: Designed as a significant statement piece.Multi-Part Assembly (17 Head Layers + Base + Internal Parts): A rewarding printing and assembly challenge.Designed for E27 Bulb Compatibility.Includes Assembly Tools: Spacers and alignment piece provided.Required Hardware:E27 Bulb Socket and CableE27 LED Bulb (LED recommended to avoid heat issues)Printing Recommendations:This project involves printing numerous parts. Patience and attention to detail are key!David Head Layers (17 pieces):Material: White or Marble-effect PLA is highly recommended.Layer Height: 0.16mm - 0.2mm recommended.Supports: No supports needed if printed flat.Infill: 8% (or as specified in the .3mf profile).Base:Material: Match head or use a contrasting color/material.Layer Height: 0.2mm.Infill: 15-20% for stability.Supports: Check model orientation; likely none needed.Internal Shader:Material: Clear or Translucent PETG is ESSENTIAL for light diffusion.Layer Height: 0.2mm.Supports: No supports needed.Spacers, Alignment Piece, Shader Closure Piece:Material: Any standard PLA/PETG.Layer Height: 0.2mm.Supports: No supports needed.Assembly (Please Read Carefully):Print ALL parts: 17x
