I really wanted to gift some custom lithophane ornaments this Christmas and needed a reliable way to light them since some recipients have pre-lit Christmas trees.  I bought some led tea lights on amazon and modeled this cap to hold them snug and upside down. The threaded_insert can be glued directly to the ornament bulb and the light_holder then threads into it.  You can use the settings in https://lithophanemaker.com/Lithophane%20Sphere.html to ensure that your ornament fits nicely.  

I also followed this video by EB3D Printing to get my photo's setup. https://youtu.be/AEQV8MGdswU?si=dVieBNi1ArHZclvq 

Printed in some generic Silk PLA I had on hand without supports.

Hope some of you enjoy my first model and enjoy your holidays!
