This project is a restyling of two essential parts of the DIY mood Lamp, it is designed for the Electromaker Kits competition
The proposed design is inspired by an abstract concept of balance and respects the dimensions provided by ElectromakerKits, in order to adapt with the original parts.

I share a small modification to the original base, to change the hole through which to pass the wires of the LED.
There are also modified files that I printed to make my personal lamp, also adding a wireless charging to charge my phone.
More information for the print in the section "Technical Information"
It is necessary that the body is empty (0% infill) in order to pass the three wires of the leds. Advice to modify the slicer settings to print the base with infill and the upper part without.
(If you use Ultimaker Cura you need to download the custom support plugin and select modify setting for overlaps, in this way it will be possible to change the infill as you want)
I recommend not to print the walls too thin to not make the model too brittle, but not too thick otherwise the wires will not pass in the narrowest parts.
I also recommend the use of supports.
After printing the body, it is necessary to make two small holes to pass the wires
the first hole at the top where the led holder fits
and the second under the base near the body
running the wires through the body may be difficult, but using a ball chain as a fairlead probe will be very simple.
then the assembly procedure it is the same as the DIY mood lamp
