The Market of One

Thingiverse is one of the best places to locate new objects to print. Often objects you can find will push the limits of what is possible to print and Object 61796 is one of them. It takes its inspiration from the video game Portal and its sadistic robot GlaDOS. The ceiling hanging robot has been recreated into a very detailed printable ceiling lamp in 28 printable pieces. While a lamp would seem impressive enough its creator “dragonator” went even further and made it motorized. This print showcases how one can work around the limitations of their printer to push the envelope of size and complexity. This object not only creates a fantastic object but also a useful one integrating an actually usable LED light fixture. Its a great showcase of problem solving and practicality that can be possible. While it is a print that few will print, it is a great inspiration to others showing what can be possible with the current technology and how much further is can go.
