The Ultimate 3-Part Desk Lamp – No Supports, No Stress, Just Light!

Why buy a lamp when you can 3D print your own like the absolute legend you are? This modern, three-part lamp is easy to print, even easier to assemble, and won’t require you to summon the dark arts of support structures.

The Ingredients for Glowing Success:

• E14 LED bulb (ONLY LED! Unless you want your lamp to become a Salvador Dalí sculpture.)
• E14 socket with cord and switch, I used a socket similar to these ones:

Printing guide:

bottom part and socket holder: 

• PLA, 15% infill, 0,16 mm layer height, 0,4 nozzle

lampshade:

• PLA (white recommended for max glow-up), vase mode (the lazy-but-genius way to print hollow things), 0,16 mm layer height, 0,4 nozzle

How to Assemble (without losing your sanity):

1. Drop the lampshade onto the base like it’s meant to be there (because it is).
2. Screw the socket holder into the base—no glue, no zip ties, no drama.
3. Detach the cord from the socket.
4. Thread the cord through the bottom of the socket holder and reattach it.
5. Screw the socket into place, stand back, and admire your masterpiece.
