MAKING & MANUFACTURING
HOW IT WORKS
After over 45 hours of 3D Print time, all 12 pieces were finished. Ideally top and bottom would each be one solid piece but due to limited making capabilities- they had to be printed separately. The entire form is held together with tension through wires that run through the outward points of each "star" (shown below). This allows the user to adjust how much the lightbulb is obscured and change out the bulb when nessisary.
