Description

This is a FULL SIZE torch coming in at a whopping 18" long. You'll need to print this in 4 parts but only the body and interface need to be glued together with a few drops of super glue. The torch uses a standard hanging lamp cord, I used the hemp rope style which goes with the dungeon motif. https://amzn.to/43LTi4r You can use any standard E26 style bulb in it but I recommend a flicker bulb for the full effect something like https://amzn.to/3KlnWLk will work well and give you the flicker you see in video games. 
 

I saw a number of similar models out in the space but most were "night lights" this is a full sized sconce and is quite impressive once fully assembled. Super glue is required for the interface part to the main body. Just use around the inside where they connect. I had it together in 2 minutes.

Mount the mounting bracket with two screws onto the wall, then simply slide the assembled torch over the mount. Gravity keeps it in place and easy to remove so you can pop in a new light bulb after the many hours of light and joy this print will bring you.

Please remember if you want to sell this in your etsy shop or other retail outlet you need a Thangs subscription. If you're building one for yourself its 100% free! Have fun and post your makes!

Unfortunately the flame model does require some minimal supports to print. Tree supports or very minimal support (5-10%) is all that is required so you get a good bridge at the top. If you have a printer with good bridging you can attempt it without supports at all.

You will need to clean up the base of the flame as well. I used a deburring tool on all sides that insert, including the bottom. Elephant footing will prevent it from going in all the way, just trim it with the deburring tool and it will go right on.

I printed with .2 layer heights and 3 walls. Where needed I included 10% infill but the majority of it is walls which results in a a solid print.
