    3D Pinted UV Manicure Lamp

    Adafruit is at it again. This time a nifty 3D printing project for the women out there, or some men ('Not that there is anything wrong with that'). The project is for a UV nail curing station. The thing is small, and will allow for easy traveling. The entire video can be found at the article which Bridget wrote up this morning, located here: http://3dprint.com/14082/3d-manicure-lamp/

    Let us know if you have created this for yourself or your wife. Please post some pictures as well as feedback in this thread. Below is a picture of the finished UV nail manicure lamp:

    Looking at the BOM, one can buy a UV manicure lamp outright on Amazon for much less, $25 or less. Just looking at a few items, that's easily more than $60 in parts there. Granted, some of that is for battery operation, I didn't look if the Amazon ones do that.

    Adafruit are notorious for their advertising / 'free' makes... they do make some cool stuff, but they aim everything straight back to their store which can get annoying
