I wanted to find a unique and creative gift I could make quickly and easily for Christmas gifts. When I discovered lithophanes I knew I hit the jackpot! These pictures can be easily customized and after they're printed take about 15 minutes to put together, making them the perfect gift for any occasion.
This simple design looks great sitting on a desk, or you can use a thumb tack to hang it on the wall! Get creative and add your own twist, comment down below what you guys come up with!!

Awesome!
I ll share this video with friends.
A great project. I am searching through the photos of my grand kids for the best material to print.
What is the best filament for printing lithophanes
I use hatchbox because it’s very reliable but most filaments should be fine if your printer settings are tuned
The The The 0:12 😢is 0:12 😅yy r yea 0:19 😢 0:20
print the lithophone standing up, you'll get much better quality
This project was awesome loved it nice job....
Glad you enjoyed, stay tuned for more!
Can you make and sell me a few light boxes that I can attach to the frame? Or do you know where I can buy a finished picture with lights in the back like the ones you made?
what are the lights above your door? is there a how to on making those? or is that your next project?
I’ll do a video on those soon! I’m a little behind on videos because I have to focus on school though
I am easily distracted. You're right
Glad someone caught that lol

What would I need to modify in the code to simply turn on a set of white leds?
You could do this easily by setting up one IO pin as an output and then setting it HIGH. Don’t try and modify my code to do this. If you want a starting place you can take the blink example from Arduino Files->examples->basics->blink and change that code to keep the LED on rather than blonking
@@TheTechRandom thanks for the tip! I’ve managed to get the rbg version working. The boards I got had header boards, first attempt I removed them and soldered all wires. I’m terrible at soldering boards and I struggled but it works. I sourced parts for future boxes so I had no more soldering, plus I added an on/off switch. All header boards remain now allowing me to use the board right out of the box.
Very cool! I’m glad you were inspired
@@TheTechRandom with this code can I add more than 6 LED’s? I would just change the number, correct?
I’m not sure. The algorithm was written to be flexible but it only handles two rows of LEDs under each tile. I think it would work if you had two rows of 6 under each tiles but any other arrangement would probably require you to write your own algorithm. Still I think writing the “Light Tile” function was my favorite part of writing the code so you can watch my code walkthrough for some inspiration if you want to try and make your own.
I think that's Mini USB. There are no Micro USB Type B.
You are completely correct. My mistake, thanks for catching it!
