Pineapple Lamp

 I made that as a gift. Printed in PLA. With the size and a hole in order to fit a RGB led lamp with a IR remote controller. Made in 2 pieces in order to fit in almost any printer. 

<p>These pieces go on the Y-axis end plate, preferably the one to which you&apos;ve already attached your controller, so that the wiring is minimal. <br></p><p>One bolts to the inside of the end plate so that the X-axis plate will hit the switch before it hits anything else. Wires come back through the tiny open bits of slot next to the makerslide ends. <br></p><p>Second has a slot in it to fit the angled edge of the end plate. You will need to bolt some kind of spacer onto the rail end plate to meet it. <br></p><p>All in openscad so you can adjust for the size of your microswitches or the tolerance of your 3D printer.<br></p>

<p>UPDATE: I&apos;ve fixed the Y-axis stop so the microswitch lines up with the hole in the long-rail end plate. Pretty much any kind of bolt in there should trip it. Also added a Z-axis stop setup consisting of a holder for a switch that sits on the bed and an adjustable probe that bolts to the Z carriage next to the spindle holders.</p>

Wall Clock Zodiac Circle

 I connected the 3D printing technique and stained glass technique using epoxy resin. Thus, bright and unusual models are obtained. And besides, great gifts! The Zodiacal Circle clock is printed on the 3d spot and filled with a multicolored epoxy resin. You also need a clockwork with arrows. To the mechanism I printed the holder, which must be glued with glue. If you want to print such a wall clock without the use of epoxy, I provided the option with a base layer of 1mm. You can print in different colors with a change of plastic or simply paint the finished model with paints.
