Similar projects worth following
From last few weeks we are seeing many posts about the Impossible Floating table. Using the same concept I have designed a Lithophane Floating Lamp. Lithophane Floating Lamp is a desk lamp,having the photos you desire to have on it. Its can be a best gift for your loved ones. The lamp has different color modes which can be triggered using a push button or a IR sensor.

    Came out looking really nice! Two eye-grabbing techniques put together look very much like a traditional lamp, but make you look twice to see there's a bunch of extra stuff going on here. I wonder if rev2 can have something that makes the lithophane lamp shade rotate slowly (once per hour)?

      Are you sure? yes | no

    Thank you! Yes that would be awesome if it's rotated. May be some one else can try this idea , I have already gifted this lamp to my sister.

    Tensegrity and lithophane together, pretty cool. Now add live-edge pallet wood with a resin waterfall and an LED cube, and you'll have all the awesome looks in one place, lol. And Nixies, of course.

    Great work, love lithophanes!

      Are you sure? yes | no

    Thank You Sir! I have never got my hands on resin but some or the other time I will.
