Let's print one

It's a good idea to use a light filament like a white one or a translucent one.
The IKEA MÖRKRÄDD LED lamp consumes less than 0.5 W there is no temperature risk
 

This is a two part print, you need this lithophane and one of the covers i made for the Mörkrädd.

To let the full moon shine at his best i would chose the closed cover. This is the one i used for the pictures above.

Great! 
how can i make my own lithophane with my own pictures?

 

You need a picture, no matter if color or gray scale, no matter if picture or screenshot, everything works.

 

Step 1 upload your image

Step 2 use this settings

 

Don't change the settings for:

  • Width 80 mm
  • Height 80 mm
  • Frame Thickness 2 mm
  • Frame Depth 2 mm
  • Frame Angle 60°

 

Settings you may change

You can change Min Thick and Max Thick and also the mm per pixel Quality options.
A Min Thick of 0.6 or 0.8 mm is recommended especially if the picture has big light areas.

 

Where to get the LED Lamp?
