Description

I love my LED setup and the AMS Riser V2 by maCyo42 but found that the LEDs made seeing anything on the camera nearly impossible at times (even at 1% brightness). By adding this diffuser I now get ample light without blowing out my camera (even at 100% brightness).

For this you'll need to print the following parts: (PETG Recommended)

4 - Part Studio 1 - Corner
2 - Part Studio 1 - Sides
1 - Part Studio 1 - Back
1 - Part Studio 1 - Front

The back and front pieces are the same size but the back contains a cutout for the LED wires. When installing take careful note of the orientation of the straight pieces, one edge of them are intentionally not straight to allow it to match up to the corner pieces. Simply install the diffusers using the existing ziptie holes on the riser.

I recommend printing these upright as this will help make the curved surfaces more consistent. I intentionally printed my diffusers to be slightly opaque as I wanted to make sure it was blocking and diffusing some light. If you would like to make your parts more transparent I found this article on the Bambu Labs Wiki to be useful.

Great design, but unfortunately I'm having some issues with the supports. What supports do you recommend?

The designer has replied

@sushibagel

what issue are you having with the supports specifically? Is that with the profile I provided? Tree supports worked well for me.

@mela.deavila

I used tree supports but this was causing the pieces to be knocked over and the ones that successfully print was tough to remove them without almost removing the top pieces. is there a setting I could perhaps update to make the support more lose on the top?

@sushibagel

Replying to @mela.deavila :

Hi sorry for the delayed response. I didn't get a notification for your comment for some reason. Ya, that piece is a bit fragile. If you're using Bambu or Orca Slicer you can try playing with your support "Top Z distance" and "Top interface spacing" Alternatively if you have an AMS you can also opt to print the support interface in a different material (PLA if your diffusers are PETG or vice-versa).

@Faintcoma

what lights did you use

The designer has replied

@sushibagel

I used some SK6812 RGBW LED Strips I found on AliExpress hooked up to a QuinLED-Dig-Uno and controlled by my WLED in my Home Assistant. There are other ways to do it but I wanted an automation to turn the lights off during Lidar scans. https://www.aliexpress.us/item/2251832290002435.html?spm=a2g0o.order_list.order_list_main.5.2e2d1802jA8vL5&gatewayAdapt=glo2usa
