Willow gets a new light

I had a light I made using perf board that fit on the old x carriage.

Unfortunately it would not fit on my new x carriage, so I designed a board with KiCad and had it made using BatchPCB.

The idea being to have 4 different sets of 3 LEDs.   I chose White, Orange, Green, and UV.

The UV is very cool with the Ultimachine Blue PLA.

I originally designed it to have the LEDs wired in parallel but after getting the boards I realized that was a bad way to drive the LEDs so I changed the board by breaking a few traces and adding a few jumpers.

Black Light PLA - Call-out for Pictures

I have been playing with UltiMachine's UV glowing PLA for a while now and have made a variety of things.  Here are some pictures:

 

and the picture that was such a hit back in June:

Now that I have completed my first Mendel set, I think that next set I print and sell will be made from this PLA (A UV Glowing Mendel will be very cool...)

I even have a Moai necklace made with it for sale on etsy.

Are other people printing with this PLA?

Are there pictures?
