Customizing the model: If you want to customize the model, i have provided two user-parameters in the fusion-360 file: Socket clip diameter and socket y offset to change how far into the lamp your light goes (see photo). If you want to customize those parameters in Fusion 360 go to modify>change parameters. Print settings Fish: I printed the fish in vase mode with a 0.8mm extrusion width and 0.10mm layer height. I also printed with two bottom layers and a brim to ensure good bed adhesion. The layer height made a big difference towards the top of the fish as the model flattens out, and to hide the layer lines when acting as a diffuser for the light. I used prusament vanilla white PLA as it is somewhat translucent. I recommend printing a small test-cylinder in vase-mode to see how your light shines through before you print the whole thing. Cap: It might be a good idea to use a filament with a higher temperature tolerance if you are using a brighter bulb. Everything else: \_(ツ)_/ How to make Glue the fish onto the screw. There is a small channel where the fish fits perfectly.Get a E14 lamp socket that can fit through the 33mm hole in the base.Get a E14 LED bulb that fits through the 38mm hole of the screw/fish. Don't put in a bulb that generates a lot of heat as your plastic might melt. I recommend a warm white(2700k) 2-5W (actual wattage, not equivalence wattage) “candle” LED, (see links under).Put the socket through the tube of the capPut the clip in place around the socket (or not if your bulb is up along the edge and you are fine with that).Clip the cable into the slot on the bottom of the cap by pushing the wedge from the inside with the rounded part outwards.Links: Socket with cable and switchBulb
