This is my re-mix of the falcon heavy lamp/nightlight. From the original, I changed:
Scaled both the exhaust and falcon files to 180%. This was the biggest I could comfortably fit on my Monoprice Maker Select V2 ( Wanhao I3)
Designed a new base to accommodate:
a. a full sized Arduino ( original was for an Arduino Nano, and I didn’t have one laying around.) I used a clone with micro usb, and removed the headers and dc power jack from the board to decrease its profile.
b. I also had a 16 LED RGB ring in stock, so this bas is designed for that. ( smaller than the 24 LED ring in the original, but more than adequate.)
c. micro on/off switch I found laying around.. Sorry don’t have details on the switch.
I’ve reused the original code unchanged:
“Code, Library use FASTLED : I've included my custom code of one of the FASTLED library sample codes, I updated the lights and slowed them down to be really soothing. It gives off what I think to be a great effect.” -N1tsuaFox I’ve gone ahead and included the original code as a text file here, too.

After printing, I Painted the black details with Testor's Model paints. I also added a bit of black speckle to the exhaust plume with spray paint held far away to "dust" it.
