Description

I've made the second version of the backlighted Scala frame :)

Changes:

  • The stand (base) is detachable and optional.
  • There is a hole for a 6mm screw or smaller. You can hang it on the wall.
  • Fully printed AAA battery holder
  • I make it easier for maintenance and assembly.

Prerequisites:

  • Filaments
    I've used PETGs: Prusament Signal White, Jet Black and Devil Design Ruby Red Transparent.
  • Batteries: 4x AAA batteries
  • 4x LEDs: in my case, I've used 3mm flat-top cold white LEDs with a max current of 20 mA. 
  • SS22T25 switch + glue → I have no idea how to reliably place this switch without glue.
  • Resistor: In my case, ~45 Ohms for normal 1.5V batteries and ~27 Ohms for 1.3V rechargeable batteries
  • Some wires and soldering iron—some wires were not soldered in my case (e.g. wires connected to the springs).

 

Printed using MK4 with a 0.4 nozzle. Some walls could be too narrow for a 0.6 nozzle.

Assembly is explained in one of the photos. Just write a comment if something is not clear.
