I have used EcoTough PLA 2.0 – 1.75mm – 1 Kg red filament, to print the  lamp.

I have used HATCHBOX 3D Printer Filament, 1 kg Spool, 1.75 mm, black to print the base.

I downloaded the file from the Thingiverse site.

It took 6 hours and 58 minutes to print the 3d lamp

These are the steps below which I took to print it:

  • I sliced the file using the Cura software and then exported it to the SD card.
  • After that I checked to see whether or not everything was good on my ender 3 pro 3d printer.
  • Placed the filament on the spool holder and then leveled the bed. Inserted the SD card into the printer. Turned the printer on and did auto home on it.
  • Checked to see whether the printer’s bed-level accuracy by, printing the chep bed file. 
  • Once it was ready to print, I printed the file from TIF.
  • Kept an eye throughout on the printer while it was being printed.
  • The printer cooled down before I took the print off.
  • Auto homed the printer and then turned the power button off.
  • Took the SD card out of the printer.
