Tealight lantern
Description
Tealight holder lantern, with exchangeable side panels. Maze and Voronoi patterns are available, it is also possible to add your own pattern.
Printing Details
It is a lightweight design that requires a well-calibrated printer. I recommend the use of a 3D printing adhesive.
How to do
- print the base and glue the feet under it,
you need eight feet - print the bottom and top frame,
print the support, you need four,
glue it together, don't use to much glue - print the panels, you need four
- the side panels slide into the frame from above
- don't glue the side panels, they stay in place by themselves
- put the frame on the base, don't glue it
How to print the side panels
- I recommend a layer height of 0.2mm
- with a layer height of 0.2mm, the side panel consists of four layers
- two layers panel and two layers pattern
- I used transparent filament for the panels and black for the pattern
- you can print it by changing the filament at 0.6mm (recommended)
- or you do a multi material print (recommended)
- or you print it as one piece and paint the pattern
- there is also an blank side panel, you can apply your own pattern there

Safety instructions
- Please handle tea lights and open fires with care and do not leave any tea lights unattended
- Do not use too large tealights (30mm > ⌀ < 40mm)
- If you are not sure about using real tea lights, use LED tea lights instead
