As you may have noticed — I've had a slight obsession with lighting recently. The Quilted Planter has been super popular so I thought I'd throw that pattern on a pendant light! This is a quick print in vase mode. The 9.5" pendant takes 3h 30m to print and the 4.5" size takes 1h 44m.

These can also be printed regularly with an infill. This will obviously take much longer but they'll be less fragile.

Note that you must only use LED bulbs (9 watts max) as traditional bulbs can get pretty hot and could cause damage to the plastic. I like multi color smart bulbs that I can control with my phone, but any standard 9W LED bulb will do.

Tips for printing: If printing the shade in vase mode with a .4 nozzle at .2mm layer height — use 13 bottom shell layers. You can adjust these if you're printing with a different size nozzle or layer height. The extra bottom shell layers force the shade supports to print with an infill, then start printing in vase mode the rest of the way up.

Supports None needed!

Scaling I wouldn't recommend scaling this one since it perfectly fits the pendant light socket.

Orientation Should be oriented with the open side facing up.
