I have designed and fabricated many props and scenic items. Below is one of those props. It is a faux fire torch that I designed and developed
Concept Art
The torch will have various applications and the cold-water mist/LED design can be scaled depending on the projects needs and size.
Design, Prototyping, and Fabrication
I designed the torch housing in Fusion 360. It consists of a threaded removable base that holds the power supply. The base threads to the main assembly which houses the ultrasonic mister, LED’s, and LED controls. The mister housing is double walled and sealed to separate it from the LED wiring harness. The lights sit recessed below the rim and are powered independently of the mister. The entire housing was 3D printed out of PLA and once tested and working was sanded, textured, primed and painted. Apoxie sculpt was used for the texture and detail.
