Here is the central pieces needed to create a Mandala Tao | |
from the Doctor Strange film, with an acrylic plate | |
illuminated by a 3528 led strip, just like in the photos. | |
There is the following pieces : | |
- The **upper rounded cap**, used to close on the top and | |
holding the led strip, with a slit on one side to let | |
pass electric cables. You will have to pierce the lower | |
parts of this piece to be able to add any fastening | |
system to make it hold in place *(I used thin steel wire | |
to do it)*. | |
I didn't added holes on this part to let you choose your | |
own way to fasten it. | |
- Two different **under parts**, one with 12v *(A23)* | |
battery holders *(a modified version of this battery | |
holder : https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2219910 I just | |
tweaked the height to be able to add little metal parts | |
for the electric contacts)* and holes to add a slide | |
switch. | |
The second under part is used as a simpler base, as the | |
led strip is connected to an Arduino lights system on the | |
Doctor strange costume *(this way, we can light up | |
sequentially the Eye of Agamotto, two EL-Wire on the arm | |
and the acrylic plate !)* | |
There is holes in those under parts to help secure the | |
upper part into them, plus a slit at the base to add some | |
elastic strap to hold the finished Mandala in your hand. | |
- a **spacer**, that can be printed multiple time and | |
tweaked. It is used to make sure the edge of the acrylic | |
plate is aligned with the leds for maximum efficiency. | |
*(It's better to print those without raft it seems)* | |
The spacer is needed as you may want to use different | |
thickness for your acrylic plate *(as for me, I used 3mm | |
Perspex plates)*. | |
- 2 models for the **acrylic round plates** : one for the | |
Orange Mandala Shield *( | |
tao_bouclier_orange_V2_svg_simple.svg)*, one for the | |
Green Mandala Time Spell | |
*(Tao_temporel_Vert_svg_simple.svg)*. | |
You will have to create the acrylic plates with laser | |
engraving or a CNC tho, and **beware** that the first | |
drawing *(for the orange Shield Mandala)* has the | |
engraving in black and the cutting part in red, and for | |
the Green Time spell, it's inverted *(engraving : red, | |
cutting : black) (yep, I was distracted ^^ )* | |
The inner cut should be of 37mm in diameter, the outer | |
cut should be 250mm in diameter. | |
**You may want to print the 3D part before doing the | |
acrylic part, to be able to measure exactly the size of | |
the upper domed part with your ledstrip on it and compare | |
it with the size of the inner cut before lasercutting.** | |
