LuBan Light Box Guide

[@swagswap]

// I use openSCAD a lot. Here's an example script that might help you make the STL for such a light box if you want to try it out:
name = "Scott";
point = 50;
wall = 6;
height = 20;
backwall = 2;
face = 2;
fawnt = "Sukhumvit Set:style=Text";
tolerance = .3;
lidPlacement = 150;
// box
difference() {
linear_extrude(height)
offset(r=wall)
text(name, size=point, font=fawnt);
translate([0,0,backwall])
linear_extrude(height)
text(name, size=point, font=fawnt);
translate([0,0,height-(face*2)])
linear_extrude(face*2)
offset(r=tolerance)
text(name, size=point, font=fawnt);
}
// lid
translate([lidPlacement,point*1.3,0]) {
linear_extrude(face)
offset(r=wall)
mirror()
text(name, size=point, font=fawnt);
linear_extrude(face*2)
mirror()
text(name, size=point, font=fawnt);
}

yo how do I use this can you make a video?

[@JBCool0729]

too much pain in the ass to learn and use this

[@brau3D]

Excelente video, podrías enseñar como agregar texto a una imagen para haber una caja de luz en Luban? Gracias

[@Sbregher]

Finally, I found a video about using Luban3d that's in English! Thank you so much! And the video is well done!

[@shotgunscott055]

Haven't been keeping up with the comments here, didn't think there'd be this much interest! I'll make some more videos like this soon but with better audio 👍

i did everything the same like u,except using the treshhold and distance part in a 2D window of Luban3D . i just used the png export after u "frameboxed "it.... i will tag u in the facebook page of luban to show u the result with the settings made.

Thanks Sven!

Just what I have been looking for, I have to give this a go

[@digitaltransformation-3dpr949]

Have you thought about doing a video on the stencil option on the box/lid?

[@ak1ra492]

Great work mate have to try this.

[@Jasonmburden]

totally new - what color do you print the "words" for best result?

[@charmergabriela5494]

Would you mind sharing what editor have you used to edit the picture?

[@digitaltransformation-3dpr949]
