Description

A U-channel for use with https://www.prusaprinters.org/prints/3267-led-light-bar-prusa-i3-mk2mk3. Print both sides, use some super glue to hold it together. Saves you $40-50 on buying one. Overall length is 31cm to fit the other model. Chopped in two due to printing volume limits. There is also a file for a thin defuser that you can print out of clear petg or white. You would need to print 2 if used. However, after testing for a while I decided it gets too hot with it on. Still you might opt to use it if you use 12v leds that are a little less hot. I would suggest printing this out of a material that can take some heat PETG, ASA, ABS, or PC. I used PETG and my has held up fine with 24v leds. I've also included the Fusion360 file so feel free to mod, add holes for heat etc etc.
