CAD designer needed for modelling of lamps for 3D printing - architecturally inspired Ended

About the job

Overview

We are looking for an experienced 3D designer to create a print-ready 3D model of a lamp based on provided reference images and a design description. The model will be printed on a Bambu Labs 3D printer, so accuracy, clean geometry, and printability are essential.

Deliverables

Final 3D model in .3MF or .STL format
CAD file with steps (for further modification)
File must be fully machine-ready for 3D printing (no mesh errors, correct tolerances)

Scope

Interpret provided reference images and design description
Translate the design into a functional, printable lamp model
Ensure appropriate wall thickness, tolerances, and structural integrity
No concept design required beyond the provided references

Timeline

Deadline: two days (48 hours) from project acceptance
Fast turnaround required
Budget

Respondent to include per hour rate plus estimate of time taken

Requirements

Proven experience in 3D modeling for 3D printing
Strong understanding of STL / 3MF workflows
Experience designing functional objects (product design or lighting preferred)
Familiarity with Bambu Labs printers is a plus

Assets Provided

Reference images - see below

Design description

1. This is the State Legislature for Karnataka, India. We want to create a lamp in the shape of the central structure (the dome plus the octagonal structure including the pillars underneath)
Details of dome are also on the wikipedia page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vidhana_S... read more

Design description

1. This is the State Legislature for Karnataka, India. We want to create a lamp in the shape of the central structure (the dome plus the octagonal structure including the pillars underneath)
Details of dome are also on the wikipedia page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vidhana_Soudha
2. Lamp in 2 components: Base (octagonal structure with the pillars and the railings); shade (in the shape of the dome)
3. Height: max 250 mm for dome
4. Max width of of dome (diameter) - 200 mm
5. Max diameter of base (octagon) - 200 mm
6. The base (octagon) should have a hole cut into it which will seat a 42 mm diameter socket for the lamp
7. The base should also have a small slot for the wire to come out of - dimensions of wire are 3.2mm x 5.1mm
8. The base should also have the seating for the bulb socket at least 25 mm above the ground
9. The shade should have a space inside for the bulb - assume the bulb will be an inverted cone shaped bulb, with a diameter of 45mm at base and going up 75mm
10. Print as two separate components - the base octagon (which will house the socket for the bulb, and a space for the wire for the socket to go out of), and the dome (shade)
11. The shade should either screw onto the base or sit on the base securely
