I have a couple "flame" lightbulbs that do something similar, except the cylinder stands upright and it turns within the bulb housing. There isn't enough contrast so the flame effect isn't as distinct. I think you inspired me on how to fix that.
I'm not OP, but you can probably do this with PLA. PETG is more flexible and the transparent filaments are more transparent in my experience, especially if you print it slow and hot.
the repeating texture not lining up bothers the heck out of me
Me too. Otherwise a very nice build, but I really want that texture to align
Yeo, it bothered me too! I've fixed it in my latest update! Just haven't filmed a new video yet 😂
yeah it's so cool but I feel like I held in a sneeze
Awesome! Terrific detail :)
This belongs on r/restofthefuckingowl, lol. Cool idea though!
Did you use TPU filament for the cylinder?

Most materials could be molded this way if you do it immediately after pulling it from a hot bed
I used PETG and PETG translucent!
Cool idea. It came out great
I had a toy robot astronaut that displayed planets and galaxies from the visor that looked like this.
This made me smile.
