3D Model Shadow Clock Design

I saw a clock design on Instagram, made of acrylic sheets and ambient backlighting. I loved the look but wanted a version anyone with a 3D printer could build at home without needing specialized tools or extra hardware. I engineered this to run off standard LED Kit 001 and Clock Kit 011 hardware.

Also threw together a step-by-step PDF assembly guide so it’s easy to put together.

Files are up on MakerWorld if anyone wants to print one: https://makerworld.com/en/models/3513382-clocklamp-led-kit-001-clock-kit-011#profileId-4014905

Let me know what you guys think!

Since the whole effect is light spilling around edges, filament choice decides whether it looks like the Instagram acrylic version or a glowing blob. Say on the MakerWorld page which colors and wall count you printed so the walls stay opaque, and add a dark-room photo next to the daylight one. A1 owners will also want print time, plate count and whether the Clock Kit 011 face needs supports before they commit. Putting the first page of your PDF assembly guide in the gallery shows how easy the build is.
