Articulating Arm Lamp Clamp w/ SeeMeCNC Moai Statue

Prints (0)

Description

I couldn't mount my articulating arm work lamp to the workbench with the provided base, so I built a simple clamp using SeeMeCNC's Moai statue for a base.

Print Settings: I recommend around 30% infill for the statue, 80% infill for the screw and additional shells.

I printed mine using Bamboo filament at .5 resolution using a .6 nozzle and random start points to force texture on the statue (for aesthetics)

How I Designed This: I grabbed the statue from http://repables.com/r/551/ and used Tinkercad to add the screw. I post-processed in Meshmixer to fill in some holes and fixed a few surface items on the statue.

Considerations: I would print the screw in a fairly strong material (i.e. Nylon, PETG) that has good layer adhesion. As you can see in the picture my wooden screw didn't hold up too well, so I printed one in a sample of PETG material (Thank you, Makerbox subscription) at a very slow speed with 5 shells & 80% infill.

Articulating Arm Lamp Clamp w/ SeeMeCNC Moai Statue is a creative twist on the lamp. This lamp is made with a single arm and a round base, but it can be adjusted to provide light where you need it. The arm has a ball joint at the end of it, which allows you to bend it in any direction. The arm also has a built-in switch that allows you to turn the light on or off. I will get junk removal now.It also has a built-in USB port that you can use to charge your phone or tablet.
