Fixing a Vintage Light

My dad found a vintage light at a thrift store and it stopped working. He asked me to fix it…3 years ago. 😬 Let’s see what we can do about that!

Thanks for the repair. I love it!

[@multilevelnerd]

Thanks dad!! ❤️❤️

I'm glad I'm not the only one having trouble with hole sizes. I finally found out about horizontal expansions settings, and they are my friend. Also, that is a very cool thing to do for your dad, no matter when you actually get it done!

[@multilevelnerd]

Thanks for the tip on horizontal expansion. I’ll have to look into it. I’m still relatively new to 3-D printing. But I tend to jump into new hobbies with everything. 😅 So I started with a printer that I ended up rebuilding. From like, day one. 🫣

[@auntiehomus]

@@multilevelnerd I'm not quite as hardware oriented. 😆But horizontal expansion would have made my life a lot easier with that castle I made for my daughter-in-law last year. All the parts were keyed and magnetized. Also useful for print-in-place stuff with tight tolerances.
