[@cyberman32]

hello i'am from Brazil,Good Job!!! congratulation!

[@fpshootermcgavin85]

Awesome, I tried printing the bottom plate for the start of a box, the size on Prusa Slicer came out to 165mm. How can I adjust to the standard 135mm you have listed on thingiverse.

[@MultiAnnelore]

very nice done i cant get it to work dose lithopanes but great job

[@plazmax]

U can add step motor below and cover it, its turning automatixly 360 👍 (28BYJ-48 Mini Step Motor + ULN2003A can do the job)

[@mattthompson2692]

How did you attach the bulb fixture to the base?

[@79ober]

lovely!

[@cenzosenerchia3043]

how do you make the lithophane have the same HxW when converting?

[@JoaoL15]

Can you print the litophanes without borders and it still fits well?

[@rafale3d803]

Super vidéo

[@cpproctorpro8750]

hi great end result , can i ask how you managed to get so bright vivid image, what settings did you use in 3drock, i have done same on a da vinci jr w , and prints are great but i luv the slight tan color you have managed , did you have to pass photos through photo software first . regards

[@brightspectrum1]

Thanks. I have added my settings to the description and the LED bulb used. I think the tan you are talking about is because I used a soft white bulb. I did use photo editing software to make the picture square and also transform it to black and white.

[@MikeXwolf]

Lovely! What do you have inside for electronics? I'm looking for something that will give the same warm light effect that not all LEDs do

[@brightspectrum1]

Thanks. I have added links to the description. I used a soft white bulb to give it the ware light effect.

[@lautarogatti]

how do you get the litophane to be printed as sqare? when i print a picture i get a rectangle back .... hmmm, idk what im doing wrong

[@ottrod455]

Awesome job! what light fixture did you use? Thanks for sharing :-)

[@brightspectrum1]

Thanks. This is the socket, bulb, and cord that I used.

What settings do you use for the lithophanes? I have a MK3 and trying to get some good litho settings.

[@brightspectrum1]

I have added the settings to the description.

[@usmarvin1177]

good morning can you help me how to do? I am physically and hearing impaired need support? and pla or abs? can you tell me if pla can do? it has to be white right? thank you my dear

[@cube1843]

Красиво)

[@ProwlersPit]

Did you print them lying down or standing up. I heard you get better detail if you print your lithophanes standing up

[@thomasbradley1235]

standing up is best.

[@nitin3116]

Can i doing job for using 3d printing

[@burakc4165]

what a great work.. where did you buy the boxes arround it?

[@Kunal9818494600]

Can you provide the stl ?

[@tombadham999]

i tried the same settings as you have put for 3drocks but lithophane seems too tall any ideas why done maxiumum size 130mm

[@thomasbradley1235]

i havent tried yet. but thinking that if i put the tall file and regular file in cura. Then just resize tall file to match the regular one.

[@amreshkumar7034]

How to avoid dot marks appears in lithophane

[@brightspectrum1]

I am not sure. I did slow down the speed and also printed vertically.

[@AlexChanHomeMeals]

Where did you get the frame?

[@brightspectrum1]

Are you talking about the black structure that holds the lithophanes? If so, that is 3d printed from the Thingiverse files in the description.

[@jeyakrishnanjeyapaul9281]

I too also want this black colour frame... Where I'll get????

[@rotagbhd]

If you are going to add music to your video it should not be 10x louder than your voice.

[@Cybertruck1000]

this video did not need the music overlay. it made it very annoying. Shame...
