Illuminated Skull Lamp – Prusament Spool Upcycle

💀 Illuminated Skull Lamp – Prusament Spool UpcycleGive your empty Prusament spool a second life as part of a striking illuminated skull lamp.This project combines a decorative skull model with the functional reuse of a Prusament spool core and side panel. By integrating the spool directly into the design, it becomes both a structural and visual element of the lamp — and honestly, it ends up looking like a pretty cool hat for the skull.🔧 ConceptThe skull is designed to work with a standard LED lamp kit and includes a dedicated mounting system for parts of a Prusament spool:One spool side (with honeycomb structure)The central core of the spoolThe core is closed with a customizable cover, turning it into a clean, illuminated centerpiece.✨ Customizable Light EffectThe highlight of this project is the fully customizable front cover:A plain version of the cover is includedYou can easily personalize it with:LogosTextSymbolsThanks to the LED light inside, your design is beautifully backlit and becomes the visual focus of the lamp.🧠 How to Add Your Own Logo (Simple Workflow)You can customize the cover directly in your slicer:Select the cover modelUse “Add Modifier” → “SVG”Import any SVG file (many free sources are available online)Select the SVG object in the object listResize and center the modifier objectAssign a different color/materialThat’s it — your custom design is ready to print and will shine when illuminated.🧪 Example IncludedTo help you get started, an example version is included:Skull with bones SVGReady to test the multi-color and lighting effectReady to print STLs with Prusa Slogan🎨 Materials Used (Example)For the showcased prints:Skull & lettering: Prusament PLA Blend Pearl WhiteCover: Prusament PLA Galaxy BlackThis combination creates a strong contrast and enhances the lighting effect.⚠ Compatibility NoteThe current design has been tested with Prusament spools featuring cardboard coresThe newer spools with plastic cores are not yet available for testing and are still in transitIf needed, the model will be updated once these are verified.Also note:The available “Dummy Prusament Spool” models do not fully represent the connection geometry between the individual spool partsMinor adjustments may therefore be required for perfect compatibility🖨 Print RecommendationsFor best results, I recommend printing the model with a layer height of 0.16 mm to achieve a good balance between detail and print time.Supports are only required in the LED lamp cavity (see marked area in the screenshot). No additional supports are necessary for the rest of the model.♻ Why This Design?This is not just decoration — it’s a functional reuse of a Prusament spool:The spool core becomes part of the structureThe side panel acts as a design elementThe system remains modular and easy to assembleAnd as a bonus: it gives the skull a distinctive, slightly absurd character — like it’s wearing its own recycled crown.🧩 Requirements1× Prusament spool (core + one side panel)LED lamp kitYour favorite filament (multi-color recommended for best effect)Turn waste into something eye-catching — and make it truly yours.If you print it, feel free to share your make!All my Crazy3D designs are copyrighted.
