Lucent — Acrylic Spine Stand
Created 1 months ago
Description
Lucent is a minimalist C-channel spine designed to hold two 1-inch thick, 4x6 acrylic photo blocks in a vertical stack. Rather than encasing the blocks, it grips them from the back using a continuous tension spine and two tiny retention tabs at the extreme top and bottom, remaining almost completely invisible from the front.
The entire assembly leans back at a subtle 7-degree angle. Because 2 pounds of solid acrylic has a tendency to tip, the clip features an extended, wedge-shaped rear foot that acts as a counter-lever, keeping the stack firmly planted on your desk.
Dimensions
- Capacity: Holds exactly two 4" x 6" x 1" blocks stacked vertically (8" total height).
- Clearance: 26.2mm deep slot with a 204.4mm height, allowing the blocks to slide in easily from the side without binding.
- Footprint: 40mm wide by 75mm deep.
Print notes
When you import this into your slicer, lay it flat on its side. Printing it sideways ensures the layer lines run continuously along the entire length of the spine. If you print it standing upright, the layers will run horizontally, and the leverage of the heavy acrylics will snap the spine across a layer line. Printed flat, it requires zero supports and is essentially unbreakable.

A stylized, multi-layered 3D sailboat emblem built from crisp geometric sweeps. The design sets a long, sweeping hull against towering, detached triangular sails, with the entire structure sitting atop three separated, flowing wave ridges. Features stepped heights across the elements to create a sharp depth effect, completely flat on the back for easy mounting or wall display. Print Guidelines Orientation: Print flat on its back. Supports: None required (fully chamfered/beveled surfaces). Clearances: The waves and sails feature distinct gaps built directly into the geometry.
Reeded Table Lamp
A modern reeded table lamp designed to stand independently on a desk, nightstand, or cabinet. The design has been re-proportioned to be shorter and wider, offering a grounded, substantial look. Customization & Assembly Main Shade: Measures 130mm tall and 140mm wide, heavily textured with vertical reeds. It simply slides over the base lip. Base Stand: Sits flat on the table with a 25mm height. It features a standard 42mm hole for an E27 socket and a discreet bottom channel for cable routing. Top Diffuser: A drop-in cap that hides the bulb and softens the upward light. All three pieces are designed to be printed easily without supports. The modular drop-in fit makes swapping bulbs or modifying the shade's color later straightforward.

Print Notes: Designed to be printed in standard FDM standard mode (hollowed out with 2.5 mm walls, rather than vase mode) for maximum rigidity and heft. No supports required. Ensure your print bed is well leveled to anchor the large flat bases securely.
