You were getting a like anyways but then you pulled the tenacious D reference. 😊
Haha - Thank you! 😁
I think the pull cord and the little rocket is classy. Great job Bryan
Thanks! I wanted to make an Apollo-style lunar lander instead of a rocket but my design skills aren't good enough.
Wow. Out of this world. Looking forward to a 3DP litho of Uranus.
I can't NOT link this video in response: th-cam.com/video/0czFnIvKOJY/w-d-xo.html
Just a Tribute... I understood that reference. Great Job!
Thanks! You're one of the more Tenacious viewers of this video. 😉
Thumbs up for the Tenacious D reference 👍👍
Thanks for reworking this. I printed mine from glow-in-the-dark filament, and put a UV bulb in it, which activates the phosphors. I wasn’t able to find a dimmable UV bulb, so went with a cheap simple on-off lamp w/o charging ports. A 4W UV bulb provides a good looking moon, and “night-light” level illumination…..as well as an eerie glow long after it is turned off.
Aha! I understood that song reference! Thanks Bryan, great video as usual!
Awesome! Thank you! 😉
Good project, i prefer the touch version
Great video and a great hair day!
Haha! Thank you! 😃
Like the tenacious D quote. :)
Haha! Thanks! I hadn't listened to them in a long time and that line just popped into my head, so I went with it.
Love this project !!! Good job as always 👍
Thanks, Denielle!
The touch base is good but the pull chain with the little rocket.. Brilliant. Well done again Brian 👍
Thanks! 😁 My daughter has the touch lamp and I have the rocket one.
Love your videos, but this is one of my favorites!
Bought my son an Ender 3 pro. I'm getting an Ender 3 S1 pro. This will be one of the first prints!
Great project! Can’t wait to try it! By the way… you have the best hair in 3D printing! My bald head is jealous! 😊
Thanks! (and thanks! This is what three years worth of not getting a haircut looks like!) 😁
My hairy head is jealous! His hair is amazing... I think it grew 10cm in this video.
Perfect Xmas gift
Tenacious D reference. Nice.
I need to revisit printing a moon lithopone. I tried several months ago with a different design and after printing maybe 10% of it, I would loose adhesion to the bed (even with a raft). This one looks to have a much larger base. Hopefully I can do it.
the loosing adhesion was the problem i had when trying to print one. In the end I gave up.
It might be worth using a brim instead of a raft. That could give it more surface area in contact with the bed.
a really fascinating little project you put together there.
Thanks! It was very illuminating! 😁
Great project 👍
Good find with the moon globus.
Thanks for sharing your experience with all of us 👍 😀
Thanks Asger!
The Tenacious D reference!!
I found a Phillips Wiz smart led light at Home Depot that fits through the hole. I can now have a blue moon or a blood moon.
That's cool!
Nice, thank you. I like both bases.
Thanks, Ron. I like the touch base because it can be set to three different brightness levels, but my daughter took that one. (I could print another twist-lock thing and use the other touch base if I wanted to).
Nice! I made one some months ago, but just customized it for a battery-powered camping lamp I found in my local CVS. It was mostly for my space-obsessed 4 year old to play with.
that every cool Bv3d
Thank you, Paul!
Another cool thing I had been meaning to print and then forgot all about, the mains solution makes it much more useful, I printed some giant crystals and made some cases for the crystals to fit on top and be fixed and an RGB puck to go in the bottom and fade through the range of colours but Im sick to death of charging the batteries for them, maybe I should convert them to USB power.
LEDs going through batteries is a problem in this house over the holidays; I like using the multi-color LED pucks as bases for vase-mode Christmas trees on the mantel.
Sweet lamps Bryan!
That is very cool.
Thank you for the video - clever use of existing lamps, too. I had just come from the video where that 3D pattern was maybe developed? Had a color changing LED ring inside. But this is a great idea, too! Enjoyed the word play, too. "turn it on, turn it more on, and turn it even more on."...kind of expected the follow up "touch it again to turn it off, moron".
Looks more like Sea Dragon than SLS
I'm a new subscriber, and new to the world of 3D printing... I will say that your other video connected the dots and I'm really starting to enjoy 3D printing... So I have the Creality K1 MAX and I'm printing out a moon... this is a beast of a print, but you can only print so many Benchies LOL. I'm about 30% complete at the time I wrote this comment... It's some 38 hours to print. I switched over to some white PLA filament by Overture, and the settings for Generic PLA seems to slow the print speed down quite a bit from using the Hyper series PLA... so the Learning continues.
Hello Bryan Love your Videos by the way because of your cool projects i started with 3d printing now since 3 days. Nice that you share your STL file in the Description for the Lamp Lock to hold it in place great job. Thank you very much and keep up on cool projects- i love em !:) cheers from germany
I'm sorry if this has been asked before, but what settings did you use to slice it? I have a Bambu Lab P1P and want to make sure I slice it correctly . . . I know there can be very specific settings for printing Lithophanes. Thanks for your help - this is an awesome project!
If I remember correctly, the only major setting I changed was increasing the number of perimeters, so it was solid instead of having infill. Or I set the infill to 100%. Slice it, and scroll through the layers, to make sure it's printing the lithophane solid. The model itself is hollow, so you won't end up with a solid sphere.
I think I printed this on the cool plate, which tends to have an iron grip on filament, but the P1P comes with the textured PEI plate, right? If so, you may want to use a brim or a bed adhesion aid, to help prevent the model from coming loose during the print job.
Hopefully that makes sense. I'm not sitting in front of the slicer right now, so that's all from memory.
@@BV3D Thank you so much for your quick reply. The P1P does come with a textured PEI, but so far I haven't had any trouble with bed adhesion. Thanks for your suggestion about increasing the number of perimeters or trying a 100% infill. I appreciate the help and look forward to making a Lunar Lamp . . . could be a great Christmas present!
Printed it with wall loops set to 5 and it came out perfect - thanks again! Oh and one more quick question - the lamps that you link from Amazon . . . do they fit the 28mm or 35mm twist lock base?
Bryan, excellent job- would like to print one for my grandson. As far as the touch base lamp, you don't say which twist lock adapter works with it? 28mm or 36mm? Thanks and keep it the great work!!! Gerry
Hi Gerry, the touch base lamp uses the 28mm adapter. Thank you!
Thank You! Keep up the great job :).
What should the infill and the layers be set to ?
question is for the moon print
I printed it with 0.2mm layer height, and about 6 walls/perimeters. Or you could use 100% infill. It needs to be solid so there isn't an infill pattern showing when the light shines through it.
@@BV3D Thank you
Great print but I did not know you have to have a 250mm or higher build plate. Going to try it at 95% just to see how it turns out. Thanks again for all you do.
Hi! The moon globe itself is 205mm in diameter, so it should fit on something like an Ender-3 just fine.
@@BV3D Well I will try again but for some reason when I put it on my Ender 3 Pro on Cura it would be over the edge and would not let me slice it. Thank you for the info and I will see what is going on and see if I can get it to go. Also I printed two violins and my wife and daughter love them and they sound great. Again thank you for all that you do and keep up the great work.
@@edgefpv4410 I have the same issue with the printable surface area on my ender 3 s1 pro....loaded it into cura and it wouldn't fit the way Bryan has it. I tried adjusting the settings in the slicer by 5mm on the x and y and it fit, but I'm not sure I trust it as it states that 220x220 is the area that the nozzle is able to reach....I'm going to try scaling it down a bit and hope that it works and fits on the lamps that he linked. Have you by chance done this yet and gotten it to work?
@@ajiir1 I had to go into cura in the printer settings and change the dimensions of the bed from 250x250 to 260x260 and then there was no problem at all. If you need more help let me know and I will reply as soon as I can.
@@edgefpv4410 awesome! And you printed it on an ender 3 v2 with no issues??
Thanks for an interesting printing project Bryan. I am worried before starting a very long and expensive (I live in the UK so we are ripped off on everything) print, how the top of the globe manages to hold up. I've got an ender 3 v2 and I don't think it could handle that without printing supports. Is it really possible without??? Cheers.
I printed it without supports and it turned out fine. It took 2.5 days, but looks awesome. However, I did need to use a raft.
@@rdotkey Thanks Roger. I'll give it a go then, and make sure I include a raft in the slicing. Fingers crossed. Appreciate your feedback.
Interesting that you used the X1 Carbon to print this. I’ve been wondering, if after several months of use, are people are still impressed with the X1?
I can't speak for others, but I'm still in awe of the X1 Carbon.
@@BV3D Thanks Bryan, I'm thinking of ordering one so this helps.
Which filament did you use? I'm printing one right now using the eSun Cool White PLA and find it's stringing quite a bit. Should have does some calibration prints with that filament first, but I just decided to send it and see what happens.
I've been trying to print the original ywist lock moon lamp and I get two flat spots on the print, perfectly perpendicular to each other like they were ment to be in the corner of a room. Any ideas why this would occur? Using an ender 3max with a v2 lcd and jyers. (BTW thank you, jyers is amazing!)
Hi there, I downloaded your moon but I wasnt able to grab the other two stls and now the link seems to be down :(.
but,.. but I hate printing supports Bryan! how hard are they to remove after printing your addiction? 🙃
I don't know, Thom! I haven't joined a support group yet! 😂
Cura 5.1.0 refuses to slice the model, I've no idea why.
Give me a bryan with hair, long beautiful hair
I used the file you provided but my moon doesn’t look like yours. There’s no sea of tranquility.
Another great video. Can you make a video on how to update the firmware on an Ender 3 s1 pro? I really don't like the stock firmware that came on it. I've compiled my own Marlin for the Ender 3. Max, I was just curious what you recommend as far as firmware
That's no moon
I've got a bad feeling about this...
All of a sudden,
There shined a shiny...lunar lithophane?
