This is a fun mutli-purpose design that gets loads of attention!
The 'Bright Idea' is a large light bulb that serves as a container or a trophy to acknowledge great ideas and innovation. One of the fun aspects about this print is that, with heavy contents inside, like coins shaken to a level with the bulb angled sideways, it will sit on what appears to be an impossible angle... this creates an amazing visual effect!
The bulb part is printed separately and screws into the base. At standard scale the bulb part is 122m tall... so you need approx. 125mm Z / height capability to be able to print this (allowing for a Raft which helps ensure really good build plate adhesion as the print protrudes well beyond the build plate contact area).
This makes a great storage container for all sorts of small things. It's internal space is surprisingly large... perfect for money (coins and notes), small items of jewellery, electronics including cables and cards and much more. Very novel and a unique thing for yourself or to use as a fun gift...
There is one base file but two bulb files provided. One includes a coin slot that will allow coins up to 31.50mm to be inserted so should work for all coins in use in most major global currencies. The outlet hole in the base has the same maximum opening. If it goes in it can come out... you can also insert notes due to the height of the bulb.
Great ideas and innovation are highly regarded in this day and age so this design can also…
