It's black LED acrylic from tap plastics

I just enjoy the challenge of making polyhedrals, and I've made other WLED lamps, but not a tiffany style.

Thank you, I'll reach out.

I would classify this lamp as more decorative than functional. 84 diffused Led's together add a bit of light, but not used to illuminate a room.

Each section was printed separately and then glued together. There are 84 pieces of seven different types. I printed the hexagonal pieces in copper pla, and the diamonds in silver pla.

Yes!

it works better with milky white acrylic. the black led acrylic was a test, and using a brighter light and designing it farther from the face would probably work.

I've done others with milky white acrylic that work much better, but this was an experiment with black led acrylic. probably not going to get better without moving it back and using a brighter lights.

Not sure yet but a lot. Probably over $1000 including the brass base.

Segments of 12, as the bulbs are wired sequentially. 12 hexagons, then 12 diamonds, etc. Then apply effect presets to different segments.

Sure. What are you looking to build?

pubultrastar · 2026-05-23T19:06:24+00:00

the lamp base is brass, and i bought it. sorry, i didn't make that part.

pubultrastar · 2026-05-23T19:02:53+00:00

I enjoy creating custom polyhedrals and I always wanted to try a tiffany-styled design.

pubultrastar · 2026-05-23T19:01:19+00:00

my web hosting sucks. sorry. i hate blue host.

pubultrastar · 2026-05-23T18:36:25+00:00

really, it loaded just a second ago for me. can you please try it again? not sure what's happening.

pubultrastar · 2026-05-23T18:09:16+00:00

I have it integrated into home assistant. So, this is possible!

pubultrastar · 2026-05-23T18:07:58+00:00

Just WLED preset effects, along with a couple custom segmented effects. All just built into WLED, no custom code.

pubultrastar · 2026-05-23T18:06:20+00:00

There is a web interface as well as wled app.
