I 3D-printed a functional "Living Lamp" for growing microgreens 🌱

Hey everyone, I wanted to share a hanging planter/lamp combo I engineered for my kitchen.
The best feature is the adjustable tray—you slide it all the way up to block the light for a dark, humid germination chamber, then lower it when the greens need the bulb's light and ambient heat. I'm using coconut coir to keep the hanging weight down.
It’s just for small-scale personal use, but it's a super fun way to integrate growing into home decor. I made a video of the build and my first harvests if you want to see the mechanics!
