skull lantern - luminous

I take the files from Makerbot and make the skull hollow. The top part now have place for battery holder and a alps switch. The switch is glued in the backcover. Also I have glued 4 LEDs in the area where I opened the skull. Drill a small hole down from the battery and use it for the wiring.
The cover I just screwed in the upper part. So I can change the batteries if they are empty.
Now the skull shines in the dark.

happy halloween ;-)
