Green Lantern glowing ring with levitating stand
In brightest day, in blackest night...
I'm excited to finally share my completed Green Lantern Ring Project—a pulsating, light-up ring paired with not one, but two stands: a floating stand and a classic static display stand.
This is by far the best ring prop i've ever worked on !!! :D I’ve put together a complete package that includes:
STL and 3MF files
Step-by-step video instructions
Clear PDF instructions
A helpful .txt file with links for all the parts
Video previews so you can see the magic in action
A detailed explanation of the secret behind how it works
A little personal note: I actually come from both a magic and engineering background, so merging those two worlds into a project like this has been a blast. It’s that unique blend of skills that lets me design things that aren’t just replicas—they’re original creations with a twist you won’t find anywhere else.
The secret behind the floating and pulsating effect is included and fully explained—but I kindly ask everyone not to share the method publicly. Part of the joy in this kind of project is the mystery. Just like with magic tricks, the impact is so much stronger when the effect stays unexplained for spectators. Trust me, the reactions are worth it.
Can’t wait to see how you all display and use this one. Let me know what you think—and if you'd like to see more hybrids of tech and illusion in the future.

Being a magician myself I slapped my forehead when I seen this!
haha not bad right ? :D i hav a few projects ike that - many people dont know but i've been a professional magician for almost 10 years :D
Is there anyway to buy this as an individual file?
On my cults page :) https://cults3d.com/en/3d-model/various/green-lantern-ring-with-levitating-stand
Got my LED's in today. Made 3. They're amazing. Now I just need better eyes to finish the floating stand 😂
Hello, I just subscribed but am not able to see the files for the green lantern ring?
hi there, it would appear you joined as a “youngling” member - a yougling tier is considered a test tier, a cheap way to try out patreon, so that one doesn't really get you much. only a welcome model and first model of the month :) as per tier descritpion green lantern rings are not available on the "youngling" tier everything else is on the “real” patreon, the “we are makers” tier - joining the we are makers tier for the first time will get you last monhts projects, this months project, a welcome pack , and the benefits of picking “old” models once you become eligible for it :)
how do I get the files once I have subscribed?
They are sent to your email inbox, the one you joined with, but i will send it to your patreon inbox as well right away, just in case
Would you recommend translucent filament for the LED or just white will work?
Yes, mine is called clear pla, but its the same thing :)
Can’t wait to make this. What did you use for the lens?
Clear pla :)
Another brilliant project. :) I am wondering if the pieces are designed to be friction fit or need to be glued together?
Just press them toegether :)
What size is the default ring
23 mm diameter

Printing this as we speak. Is it possible to scale down or up?
i'm afraid no, same as every proejct that uses real world parts/electronics, the scale can not be changed, but its made in a way that people with larger fingers will be able to wear it on the ring finger, while those with smaller on themiddle finder :)
Printing this after current print is finished!! Can't wait. Great job Marko!
thank you :D you'll have much fun with it :)
