Make Your Own 3D-Printed Light-Up Photo In-Person
Registeration Requested: Do you have a special photograph you want framed? Why not bring it to the library and get it 3D-printed into a lithophane?
A lithophane is a plate of thin material with differing layers of thickness that reveals an image when light is shone through it from behind. With our 3D printer we can print lithophanes from digital photos.
Bring in some pictures on your phone or a flash drive and we’ll choose one based on what will look best on a monochromatic lithophane, then we’ll 3D-print it over the next week and let you know when you can come pick it up!
Supplies are limited; registration is required and limited to 1 per family.
This program made possible through a Special Project Grant from the Rochester Regional Library Council for our 3D Printing Virtual Makerspace.
