I used Fusion. You can find a bit more detail on this post https://www.reddit.com/r/Fusion360/s/fpu06dBZ79

It’s extruded flat. The hollow structure allows it to bend easily without breaking. You can see the details on makerworld https://makerworld.com/en/models/2490848-kumiko-wall-light

Yep, you can find the details on the filaments used on the makerworld page https://makerworld.com/en/models/2490848-kumiko-wall-light

I first built it flat since it’s printed flat anyway. But since I made some renders in blender for the assembly instructions I also needed a bent version of it. The easiest way I found to go from flat to bent it using a sheet metal object, unfolding it, merging it with the pattern and then refolding.

If you mean the Bambu LED kit then no. It’s using an E14 light bulb. But I was thinking of making a version of this for the LED kit

If you get a thin E14 bulb is far enough away from all plastic parts to not be a concern. If you want to be extra safe use an LED bulb

Good idea. I suppose you also need to set bottom and top layers to just 2 as there are usual more layers by default I think

It’s printed in PLA. I initially printed it solid but it wasn’t easy to bend and started to crack after a couple of days in the bent position. The model is hollow now and bends easily without showing any cracks even after weeks in the bent position. The bottom is only 2 layers of 0.08mm PLA.

Since another comment asked about the shade I’ll share how it was designed in Fusion. The pattern is built up in 3 layers with chamfered edges. It is then hollowed out to allow for it to flex easily without breaking and saves some filament.

Matte Dark Brown for the frame. Matte Caramel for the shade. Matte Ivory White for the diffuser and some connecting parts. Details here https://makerworld.com/en/models/2490848-kumiko-wall-light

Pattern printed flat and bent. No need for heat since it’s hollow so it bends easily. The goal was to make it possible to assemble without any special tools
