Alpg88 2019 Old-Lumens Challenge Entry, machine category

Nice contrasting colours alpg88. :beer:

Wow! That looks very nice. Very neat appearing.

Looks great!!

Those are some nice printed parts.

This really shows the power of Additive Manufacturing like with 3d printers.

Congrats on finishing your build! It came out nice.

I thought that UV light does not pass through plastic lenses?

Very nice, unique design, I like it!

thanks. it depends on uv and on lenses, polycarbonate wont pass anything below 400-405nm, pmma around 380nm.
i have ledil triple tir made from pmma. and 400nm uv led,

Now that’s the kind of thing that’s useful to know, thanks. :beer:

Very good indeed, has been interesting watching it come along.

Sweet :o
Nice build :wink:

Well done on completing your build :THUMBS-UP:

Big like однозначно)))

Awesome work!

Is it hard to use program to design the light? Like CNC style?

i used 123d design, also i only used primitive figures, cylinders, and rectangles, scale function, tweak, bevel, filet. , that is pretty simple, but that is like preK of 3d design

thanks

I thought this was an absolute cracker, I liked the use of different colours (I know that won’t appeal to all) and I liked the design.The side pods for the switches are real neat!
I liked it as much as any of the other lights, and think you should be very proud of it. :+1:
Next year I have suggested there be a completely separate/different category for 3d prints just because the skill set is so different, but the end result as good but in entirely different ways!.

That is a good idea. Many more people can get into 3D printing, with much less capital outlay, than those who can use a metal turning lathe or mill. Of course the computer design portion of 3D printing or CNC maching is sinilar… but manual use of the lathe or mill is a special skillset.

The main point I would make in favor of separating them is that the two processes could never create the same result. You really are comparing apples to oranges.
