I was inspired by the original design by TanyaAkinora, a lamp in the style of Kumiko Shoji. So please read her original project description for more information about this style of Japanese architecture.

Summary of the changes I have made to the design are:

  • I changed the design of the base and uprights from a Modula design to a unified-body design. This improved the strength & rigidity of the Lamp.
  • I then increased the size of the Lamp by increasing it's dimensions from 100x100x100 to 195x195x195mm.
  • 11 new Panel pattern designs, I also included the original Panel pattern design by TanyaAkinora, resized so it works with my new design.
  • The interchangeable Panels design allows for easy installation and removal of the Panels. This makes it easy to change the Panels to a new pattern in the future.
  • I replaced the candle with a safer USB LED light with dimmer control. This LED light can be powered from any standard USB charger plug, Battery pack or a device with a USB port.
    Links and details for all materials used on this project are listed in the Materials used section at the bottom.

    If you have any questions please feel free to contact me and I will do my best to answer them.

    I really hope you enjoy this project as much as I did and thanks to TanyaAkinora for the original design.

Materials used information

[USB LED Light from Amazon]https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B01MT9RHLY/?coliid=I1U9IGNW5IUMV4&colid=1KVTL0M9E3R3J&psc=1&ref_=lv_ov_lig_dp_it

A4 Vellum Paper Translucent Heavyweight 150gsm Translucent from Amazon

I used Vellum Paper instead of the traditional rice paper as the translucent paper gives a better light effect.

Filament: Polymaker PolyWood

I decide to use Polymakers Polywood™ effect PLA to avoid possible nozzle clogs overall I am very happy with the wood effect, however this Filament did have some stringing issues given time I am sure I could have tweaked printer settings to improve this.
