The file 'Customizable Retro Lightbox 3D Printer Model' is (scad,stl) file type, size is 2.0MB.

Summary

This is a customizable thing, where you can print your own retro lightbox. These boxes normally costs >20 bucks, a printed one costs me about 5 dollar.

I've also added the two lightboxes as .stl files each with two different fonts that I'm using in the first picture.

The lid as well as the letter plates are chamfered. So you are able to slide the letter plates into the rails of the lid. After that you can slide the lid into the rails of the box. This ensures that these parts don't fall out.

Customizable Settings

Use the Customizer or OpenSCAD to create your own customized retro Lightbox.

You can set:

  • length, height and width of the box
  • number of lines
  • 2 different fonts: Siren Stencil (the little box in the picture) and Stardos Stencil (the big box)
  • round edges of the lightbox
  • size of the hole on the back, to insert your led light
  • different thicknesses of the lid, letter plates and box

Light sources

For a medium lightbox:

For a big lightbox:
