// 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); }

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 👍

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

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

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

Great work mate have to try this.

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

Thank you!

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

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

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.

cannot hear a thing whats wrong with your mic?
