I appreciate these vids on lithophanes. I've had great results on an Ender 3 pro. A little hint I rotate the curved standing panel 80° so the majority of the moves along the standing wall are produced by the bed platform Y axis and the X axis makes the smaller moves for the profile. I find this also reduces shake because the panel as it's attached to the bed is sideways and thus more stable when the bed moves. 👍🏼
LOL. It's a 5 year old post but I'll comment anyway: That quality for that size is INSANE! 100 hours is also INSANE no wonder why you printed by your bed. Imaging that going bad 75% through? I have enough issues with keeping my 127mm prints steady at the top. If you haven't printed a Lithophane they you can't really appreciate how amazing this one is! Bravo!
Very cool! I saw someone print the image in color on transparency, and then lay the transparency in from behind. Creates a cool colored effect that would compliment that painting style nicely!
I saw a guy make something similar he too the picture of the original on and put it behind the litho and when the light hit it it made it a colored litho
Another way to reduce flopping issues (might not work as well for curved lithophanes, might induce twisting) is to change the orientation of the print to the bed. Taking into account the movement axis of the bed, print it with the width parallel to the y-axis motion.
Simon you know you need to give that to your teacher man! She would be honored and very impressed! I say make the hawking one for the hobby room! Nice nod to Hawking by the way.
RCLifeOn - Looks fantastic but you should also try printing in other colors. After watching your original lion video way back I've printed lithophanes in light green and tan/skin as well as white with my CR-10. The tan/skin gives the lithophane a slight old-fashioned sepia tone look. The light green also looks great and gives it an antiique-ish tone as well as providing more dark contrast. I'm going to try using light grey and light brown in the future. I imagine any light colors will work well and provide more contrast. If you haven't tried it yet you can also slightly improve the lithophane by wet sanding the back side with 600 grit or finer sandpaper. Smoothing that back surface can reduce/eliminate possible defraction of incoming light rays. Cheers from Thailand!
I have been trying to turn the mona lisa into a lithopahane but the image to lithophane site keeps failing to process the image larger that 300mm. Do you use a specific browser to use the Image to Lithophane site for large prints or do you simply scale them to that size afterwards?
So cool, you can just put it in front of the windows, with a solar panel it can automatically switch on when its night and it can just use sunlight when its daytime.
Hi , thank you for this video , i would to ask if where i can get the software of the frame you used in your lithophane project? if you could share it with...it much appreciated. Thank you.:)
Cool print! Just curious, do you feel safe with leaving the cr-10 printing over night/unattended? And how do you get the prints to stick so well without heating the bed. I have a CR-10 and I am don't like leaving it printing alone yet. What do you think?
No, I don't feel safe leaving any 3D printer unattended for a long period of time. I have modified the CR-10 S5 quite a bit, I removed the heated bed completely and replaced the power supply with a higher quality power adapter. The prints stick without a heating bed by using the TESA Easy Stick glue. Do I think you should leave your printer unattended? No, not without precautions.
That was totally awesome, seeing what you did for power could you have came off the side or from the back? You have some great ideas that could be marketed and sold.
Hallo Sketch TV. nein musst du nicht. wenn du bei Gearbest bestellst regeln die alles für dich und du erhälst die Ware genauso wie wenn du in Deutschland bestellen Würdest MFG Noah
I don't think it would work. The idea is that the thicker the layers, the less light that is allowed to come through, thereby making those areas darker than the thinner layers. Lithophanes rely on a transmitted light source as opposed to a reflected or, in the case of GITD, a radiant light source.
I have a question about scaling a litophane. In cura the system will try to scale the model uniformly and make all the axis bigger or smaller. But I'm worried that if I for example scale a litophane by 125% the Y axis is gonna be to thick for light to shine through? Do I skip scaling on the Y axis all together. Help much appreciated :-) Älskar din kanal för övrigt, mycket underhållande!
Simon, I think it would be really cool if you tried printing as small as possible, for example tiny figurines or soldiers of 1 cm tall or something similar. Maybe you could test which of your printers is best at printing small things and details.
Spherical moon lamp on the CR-10 S5 next?! -->200h printing😲
Är du i Helsingborg imorgon?
Juste tack så mycket Jonathan!
@rclifeon where do you buy cr10 s5
too much filament...
Can it even handle that long??!!
this is awesome! Well done!
Beautiful creation Simon. A very nice way to honor a teacher who make such a positive impact on your life.

Man, your videos are lifechanging. Thank god that you even exist
Jesus, that level of detail is amazing.
Awesome print, and fun meeting you this weekend at 3dmeetup. Hope to see you next year.
Possibly the most beautiful applcations of 3D printing
What a nice tribute to her - she does beautiful work
You art teacher is an awesome artist! The proof? I looked at it the thumbnail and I thought it was a real life picture. Thumbs up to her👍👍👍

Simon,You should totally upload the file for the lithophane frame onto thingiverse. Great design!
Gratulera till en fin video om Lithophane. Det här gör du till en mästare i ämnet. Wow ....
Wonderful! Just wonderful!
Love the frame too. Thanks.
coolest teacher ever!
You're awesome brother...
Thought this was going to be a gift for your teacher.
Great project Simon. Beautiful artwork.
The level of detail you can get is crazy, cool stuff!
WOW that looks great !!
Grymt snyggt gjort ännu en gång Simon! Du slutar aldrig att imponera med dina skapelser! 😉
Simon that is awesome
Awesome 3D printer creation.
This was insanely cool! Going to have to try this sometime.
Very cool! I saw someone print the image in color on transparency, and then lay the transparency in from behind. Creates a cool colored effect that would compliment that painting style nicely!
dina 3D-utskriftskunskaper är fantastiska
Who could possibly dislike this?
AWESOME WORK!
Great job on the light box frame !
Riktigt snyggt gjort!
Awesome job man
Very nice , you should give the lithophane to your teacher , she will be Sooo proud of you .
What a great idea for a light you can change the picture on :) Very nice.
Great work BRILLIANT !!
Great video, awesome editing, its just perfect
Do you still have the STL for thelight box frame?? That’s really nice
How cool would it be if you used individually addressable RGB LEDs so you could cast colour onto the buildings and water!
Stu Elliott would love to see that 😊
I saw a guy make something similar he too the picture of the original on and put it behind the litho and when the light hit it it made it a colored litho
that's too complicated for the kid

I know you don't make litophanes often, but adding a lamp from the back would look amazing on your timelapse.
Congratulations, my very cool friend.
WAY cool. Excellent job!
Simon you know you need to give that to your teacher man! She would be honored and very impressed! I say make the hawking one for the hobby room! Nice nod to Hawking by the way.
Thats realy awsome dude! Keep it up!
Great job!
100 HOURS OMG!!!when I print more than 5 hours I found it s a lot but 100 hours!!! Awesome.
Hijack I've printed 212 hours. One print. Insane.
Donovan Morgan really?!how tall was it?
Hijack more was on quality. Took 2.5 jg
I print 60-300 hr prints all the time on my Raise3d n2 Plus... but I’m a 3dhub
Same here
cant wait for the ender 3 review. considering it to be my first 3d printer. gl simon and keep up the great videos.
looks really amazing
SUPER JOB!!!!!!

thanks for this information!
You're certainly welcome Xnoo peeX.
Very very Kool! I’ve been looking for a way to display some of my own and this is ideal. Thank you and a great video, as always 👍👍
WOW that looks Cool
PERKELE!
So amazing! You’re skill is inspiring.
Really well done. Now create one as a gift for the creator of the painting!
SO COOL!! 😄
Amazing
Awesome, I will get round to printing one eventually 😁
Great RC life on
It's fantastic. Greetings from the Canary Islands
You have a great choice of music mate
Gonna try this!
Waow, Thats so awesome!!!
Awesome!!
Hey I just want to let you know that this is now a lesson in my digital photography class
This guy deserves more subs! like, wtf?!
idk if you already took care of that but: the crs10 v2 actually has those rods securing it's very top. maybe it's also available as an upgrade kit.
Super cool
She is an amazing artist! And that's an awesome print! She should sell prints of her work. Not 3D printed, ones that can be framed.
You should have sent this to your past teacher
STL files of the frame would be great.
found it: www.thingiverse.com/thing:2902291
Nice to see this in the flesh... er, plastic... having followed along on Patreon!

Sweet Job! would it help with the light to print the frame in black?
The frame is fantastic. Is the STL file available for purchase?
Very nice work Simon, but please but a video of how you made the frame, it will help us a lot
Thanks
omg this is amazing keep it up and hello from australia
brillant.thumbs up. you are level headed meaning that
you are great and wise.thanks.
Wow, well done :-)
So cool, you can just put it in front of the windows, with a solar panel it can automatically switch on when its night and it can just use sunlight when its daytime.
as someone said, awesome was the first word that came to my mind. just awesome looking :-)

Hey. Can you tell me in what program the frame was designed. Movie time 5:04
That is so cool it is amazing what you can do
So cool.
so... yeah... I love your videos :D

Hey, you could print 2 Big lithophanes and place them back to back. then you dont need support.

This, exactly., but then you would need a 680m reel of filament 😭
That was totally awesome, seeing what you did for power could you have came off the side or from the back? You have some great ideas that could be marketed and sold.
Hey Simon, can you answer me one question. I live in Germany, so if I bought the Cr 10, must i pay customs? Sorry for my Bad Englisch

Xnoo peeX Danke für die Antwort.
Wenn du den Priority Versand auswählst, dann nicht. Sonst schon.
Looks great! I wonder how glow in the dark PLA would work for that?
I don't think it would work. The idea is that the thicker the layers, the less light that is allowed to come through, thereby making those areas darker than the thinner layers. Lithophanes rely on a transmitted light source as opposed to a reflected or, in the case of GITD, a radiant light source.
yeah, it doesnt work. ive tried it, you dont get the contrast showing through.
look at his discription "The lithophane was printed with 0.2mm layer height, 100% infill, 3 perimeters, 30mm/s and basic white PLA filament."
I have a question about scaling a litophane. In cura the system will try to scale the model uniformly and make all the axis bigger or smaller. But I'm worried that if I for example scale a litophane by 125% the Y axis is gonna be to thick for light to shine through? Do I skip scaling on the Y axis all together. Help much appreciated :-)

Scale it bigger in the Litho software before you slice it.
@@TheRattleSnake3145 Noice! Thank you 😍

What are the background soundtracks that you are using?
Maybe I missed it earlier. Is there a reason for using both cool white and soft white lights?
It is a wonderful piece. Good job
I feel like your teacher should get one too ;)
Awesome!!! More RC things please :) especially printed planes and drones!!
Can you make a lithophane stamp? I think it should work if you print it with flexible filament.
