Printing Information

Materials

Most 3d printing materials will work for this but to allow the best interaction with light, translucent materials provide the best light diffusion. White or natural will allow the lamp shade to take on the color of the bulb.

The lamps sold here are printed with a Natural color ASA from Polymaker. This ASA color is a translucent off-white. Natural meaning without pigments which provides better light transmission.
Polymaker ASA

Other materials' 'natural' color may have similar or different effects. PETG for example is a clear based plastic.

Print Settings

This design looks best when printed with thin walls and minimal or no infill to allow light to diffuse through. However the threaded portion benefits from more structure, add infill for this piece.

Use a brim for more reliable bed adhesion due to the small contact area on this large print.

The cholla lamp shade is imported with 2 separate parts in the slicer. This is to optimize infill for each.

Shade (A)

No infill on the lattice shade
2 perimeters minimum to help overhangs
Brim on bed for adhesion
No support needed

Threaded Connector (B)

2-4 Perimeters
40-70% Infill
Supports for the bottom surface only

Allow smaller minimum perimeter width. This is key to getting smooth transitions from the thin panels to the rest of the lattice. Ensure there are 2 perimeters generated in the thin panel areas after slicing.

This setting is found in the advanced tab of prusa slicer and under the Arachne perimeter generator section.

Set Minimum perimeter width: to 0.2mm
(for a 0.4mm nozzel)

Selective support area will save a lot of time with this print. The lattice and threads do not need supports. The only area needed is the bottom surface of the threaded part. Paint on or select this surface to limit supports.

For more reliable z contact, lower the support contact distance to 0.1mm

Happy Printing!
