A remix of Patrickart's beautiful Charmander model - use it as a night light, as a showpiece, or give it to someone you love!

Bill of materials

• All four 3D printed parts
• Three 10mm M3 self-tapping screws
• One 2x2032 coin cell battery holder
• LED fairy lights (about 1-2 metres) - see below for details
• One toggle switch (preferably with a 5mm thread)

You'll also need some solder and a soldering iron. Heat shrink tubing is optional but I used it to insulate the contacts!

Post-Printing

Assembly

1. Stuff the Flame (it should be printed in transparent PLA) with 1-2 metres of fairy lights that you can buy from your local dollar store or online.
2. Glue the flame to Charmander's body, ensuring that the wires leading to the fairy lights pass through the hollow body into the hole underneath Charmander's tail.
3. Glue Charmander onto the Base, ensuring that the hole underneath Charmander's tail lines up with the hole on the Base and the wires pass through neatly.
4. Screw the toggle switch onto the side of the Base, solder the wires according to the picture shown to form a complete circuit and hot-glue everything in place. Remember to check the polarity!!
5. Finally, use three 10mm M3 self-tapping screws to secure the Cover onto the Base.
