Attempted to recreate a $130 minimalist wall sconce. I have this hanging above my printer but I've been leaving it on all the time because it is extremely aesthetic. Simple, minimalist, and old-timey. I hope someone else loves this as much as I do.
Printing:
Printed on wood PLA since its much easier to sand and paint. I used a primer before the final color (linked below) but i think that was unnecessary.Any of the metallic paints would look really great.
Assembly:
The parts are meant to fit snugly but I added a couple drops of super glue to the end to make sure it would stay in place. Quickly sanded the PLA so the paint would stick better.
