Description

I was inspired by the slotted riser from Ccraft3d -  https://www.printables.com/model/1292227-v2-new-elegoo-centauri-carbon-sliding-riser-with-p but I really wanted the flush fitting aesthetics of thaessler's - https://www.printables.com/model/1240155-elegoo-centauri-carbon-led-riser.

I wanted the slot for the easy movement of the PTFE tube, the sliding platform for the glass lid, and integrated COB LEDs. My printer did have the updated lights but I still think this is poor illumination.

This is designed from scratch in Fusion360.

No screws or glue is required since the 4 pieces simply slot together.

Printed on my CC, the slotted fittings were a very tight fit and gave a very strong, robust riser.

I printed in Jayo black PLA+ with 15% infill and supports as per the attached .3mf files.

I used 1mm thick foam tape for the glass to rest on - https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07L6LDZ57?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title&th=1 and 12V cob LEDs fed from an external 12V supply - https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0DRJPRJ78?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title&th=1.
