Revo B9504 prototype bracket
It took a while for me to realise the lamp holder bracket might be similar to a well glass light's bracket. After carefully comparing, I deemed the lamp holder bracket in the Simplex well glass light as close a match I'll ever find, but even that needed some slight alterations so it would fit the way it would need to. I asked Jonathan whether he could create a 3D file to 3D print a new bracket, taking into account a slight difference I needed in one measurement. As you can see, the prototype printed out is replicated absolutely perfectly, without a flaw whatsoever. I tapped the holes to receive the screws and screwed it all into place, absolutely transforming the lantern.

I now await the lamp holder to be 3D printed in stainless steel, and for the bracket to arrive. Once its here I'll paint it silver, and get it fitted straight away. Thats a day I can't wait for at all!

You can 3D print stainless steel? Shocked

Not me personally, but a company I was recommended in China do. They're so reasonably priced I just had to go there, however that was not without question having wanted to keep it UK made.

I wonder what Xometry would charge for creating that object? They offer free quotes from the a CAD file. Probably more than the China based company though.
