I am going to try to make a base to use this

It is a colored LED light that has a remote. Think it will be cool running a fade through the colors.

I did work up a base that works with the little 30mm LED tea lights below. I'll attach it in case anyone wants to make a mood light....

Yes, That's Roxanne. Her body is brindle like the dark part of her head, very pretty dog. I think over time I'll cycle through our dogs (we have three).

Is the lace something you designed? It's looks pretty complicated.

I'm just getting into Rhino. Quite a bit to learn but it's going well.

She's gorgeous! :D

You're gonna love Rhino - it doesn't take too terribly long if you go watch a few YouTube videos - there are a couple of really good ones out there that i watched while doing the daily workouts - picked it up in a week or so.

And the lace was embarrassingly easy really,.....i designed a solid, threw a bunch of flower shaped cutouts into it, and then I just let S3D create the lace by leaving off the top and bottom layers, and using about a 20% infill pattern.

(It's the "Lazy Gal's Guide to Lace 101". Love the possibilities with this machine/software.....fun, fun, fun!) :D

Here is my finished project. I may print the clips you made and glue it to the top. I tried to make the top like lace as well, but failed :lol:

Thanks, sorry for the large picture, I will try to fix that. I did design the top like a flower. I wanted to bring that feature down to tie it all together.
