Lantern for tealight or candle with changeable panels

• 9,5cm diameter
• 8,7cm high
• printed in 14 pieces (base, top, 6 bars, 6 panels)
• no need of glueing (but it's safer to hold it by the bars when moving, especially when tealight or candle is inside)
• you can additionally lock the bars with a thread (tie it around the cutted part of bars) and use the thread as a handle too
• you can disassemble it, so it will use less storage space, and assemble it again when needed

For now 5 panels to chose (2 with additional diffused version):

• Solid (without any 'image')
• Original (with diamond pattern)
• Circles_Lite (from Vikings Set)

I may think of making some more free panels but it depends on you.

Solid one can be used as a base for your own project (important: only for personal use, you can not sell or even share that models)

If you like it check the Vikings version :)

Assembling, additional informations:

• Video shows the easiest way to assemble (bottom and top close to each other when installing bars). Installing bars to base part and then putting on the top part may be little harder
• Bars will fit only one way (the pointy part to the inside)
• Panels are better looking when you install them more flat side (usually the first layer, the printer bed side) facing the outside
• If panels will not hold push in top part little harder or use a file to scrap a little plastic on the bars, where top part holds, towards the base (so top part will be closer to base)
