Crescent Moon & Forest Display / LED Backlit Accent Piece

Bring a cozy, natural woodland glow to your desk, mantel, or shelf with this tabletop LED Crescent Moon & Forest Display! Featuring a bold crescent moon paired with staggered evergreen trees, this piece casts a warm, atmospheric silhouette day or night. To give you complete flexibility for lighting and customization: - Swappable Tree Layout: While the crescent moon sits in a fixed position, the base mounting tabs on the trees are identical, allowing you to swap their positions or rearrange them to suit your personal style.

- Three Moon Face Thicknesses: Choose from three different rear moon configurations depending on your lighting preference: - Full Thickness: Solid faceplate for a crisp backlighting silhouette.

- Half Thickness: Recessed rear cavity designed for installing LED strips to direct light straight towards the trees.

- 0.314″ Lithophane Thickness: Ultra-thin shell that diffuses light through the moon itself for a glowing lunar effect!

- Detailed Edge Edging: Features smooth chamfered edges on the trees and rounded fillets on the moon for a refined 3D look. Flat-sided versions are also included if you prefer a clean modern line or easy wood-routing patterns.

Originally conceptualized as a custom woodworking project, this model has been fully adapted for 3D printing with precise mounting tolerances and clean wire routing. Print it as a standalone tabletop decor piece or use it as a physical template guide for scroll saw or router woodworking!

- Modular Tree Positions: Identical base tabs on both trees let you swap their left/right order for a custom look.

- Versatile Moon Lighting Options: Choose between full solid, half-cut cavity, or 0.314″ lithophane translucent moon faceplates for custom LED effects.

- Base LED Strip Channel: The base includes a dedicated inset slot to place an LED strip directly across the base itself to illuminate the lower forest floor.

- Woodworker Friendly: Can double as a physical template guide if you prefer cutting real wood.
