Inspired by classic gaming, this Player 2 pixelated lightbox is a fun nod to multiplayer memories. Perfect for gaming setups or as a gift for your favorite co op partner, it brings a playful and nostalgic glow to your space.

If you don't have or don't want to install LED's you can just glue the parts together and have an awesome sign!

WARNING!

• remove purge line at the beginning of the print, it may interfere, specially with bigger prints!

Materials and tools:

• glue gun
• aluminum tape
• led strip: simple 1m or 2m white or rgb led USB (recommended 60 LED per meter)
• soldering iron (optional)

RECOMMENDATIONS

• use a textured PEI sheet

• remove purge line at the beginning of the print!

• use the print profile, it has quite a few setting changes that help achieve the best results

• make a hole for the USB strip wherever you like it best with a soldering iron, drill or in the slicer

• use the aluminum tape on the inside of the backplate to help with light diffusion

• glue the LED's the further away from the colored design possible; placing them too close ruins the diffusion and the individual LED's become visible

Bambu Studio Settings: I always recommend using the print profile I provided since it has settings with which I've been able to get the best results. If you choose not to here are the main slicer settings I recommend:

• preferences (ctrl + P) → activate developer settings → Quality →Advanced → First Layer Flow Ratio: 1.04 to 1.08
• Quality → Wall generator → Arachne
• Quality → Wall transitioning threshold angle → 30º to 50º
• Strength → Advanced → Infill/wall overlap → 20% to 25%
• Increasing retraction / reducing temperature can help reducing wisps
• Order color printing from lightest to darkest color
