3D Printing

3D print a 3" cube with 1/8" thick walls.

2

Milling

Mill your wood base. I made the pocket that the glowing shade sits in 1/8" deep. I used a speed of 22 and a depth per pass of 0.04" on the Shapeoko 2.

Adding Feet

Cut 1/4" thick cork into small circles. Glue them onto the bottom corners of the wood base.

Thanks Bryan! You may want to check out the Omaha Maker Group. There's also a makerspace (with a 3D printer) at the Omaha Children's Museum; that could be good depending on the age of your school kiddos :)
