3D model description

The Mantle Litho Light Track is a horizontal mantle display that is constructed in sections and can be as long or short as desired.

I built this for a customer who wanted 12 panels for his fireplace mantle, with each track holding 2 panels. Lithophane panels can be easily generated using a 3rd party lithophane generator (www.lithophanemaker.com), which I will describe. Users can expand or contract this display as their project dictates.

After printing and assembling the track, we will lay in (and solder if needed) WS2812B LED strip and a controller.

Purchase Parts:
1. WS2812B LED Strip and Controller
2. M4 SHCS x 10mm (3 screws per joint)
3. M4 Nut (3 per joint)
4. M4 Washer (6 per joint)

3D printing settings

Track Sections:
Print face down. No supports needed. Recommend matte black PLA, but any material/color of your choice will do.

Track Backers:
Print backside down, lay flat. No supports needed. Use white PLA to reflect the most light back at the litho panels.

Lithophane Panels:
Generate your desired images at www.lithophanemaker.com, following the instructions in the PDF file. Recommend matte white PLA, but regular white will work too. Print standing up, as they will sit in the track. No supports.
