Description

This is a 3D-printable LED charm to wear around your neck. No soldering, glue or tape. Just slide the two parts together with a small battery and a 5 mm LED. 

Developed and used by the Swedish Maker movement to illustrate that everybody can be a maker!

Can  be turned on and off with a click. Just cut and bend the LED legs to spring back when the two halves are slided apart (se pictures and print Mounting plate for assistance). Battery should be negative side up.


Printed with PLA on Ultimaker2 on 0.4 mm nozzle and on Makerbot 5th gen with 0.3 nozzle. Should be optimized for 0.8 mm nozzle in future version.

This is an attempt to further develop the LED Charm v2 (Ljushänge v2) by Swedish MakerTjej:
