I need an STL object of a custom lamp shade to be modified. The walls need to be thinned to no more than 1/4 inch without altering the exterior profile to allow for lighter weight and so its less opaque. Requirements: - Current wall thickness is between 1/2 inch and 1 inch. - Maintain the original shape and design. Ideal skills and experience: - Proficiency in 3D modeling and STL file manipulation - Attention to detail to ensure exterior remains unchanged

I’m Kaif Hasan. I saw your project and wanted to help you. I’d modify the STL by uniformly reducing the internal wall thickness to 1/4 inch or less while preserving the exterior profile, dimensions, and design, with clean geometry suitable for 3D printing. 1. Can you provide the current STL file so I can inspect the geometry and wall thickness? 2. Do you have a specific target thickness below 1/4 inch, or should I optimize it for the best balance of weight and opacity? I’m new on Freelancer, but I have 7+ years of experience, and I’m offering the most reasonable rates to build great client relationships.

Hi, Your lamp shade STL needs the wall thickness reduced while keeping the overall shape, fit, and surface details intact. I can edit the existing STL to achieve a consistent, print-friendly wall thickness and refine any areas that may cause problems during FDM or resin printing. I’ll also check for holes, non-manifold geometry, and other issues so the final model is clean and ready for printing. Please share the STL file, target wall thickness, and printer/material details, and I’ll review the model and get started. Regards, Vipin
