How I Designed This

Tinkercad

            <div><p>Added bars (0.8 wide) with boolean wedges to hold a low polygon sphere, squashed, for light scattering at the center of the light's path.</p></div>                <p class="detail-image"><img src="https://cdn.thingiverse.com/assets/4f/22/2a/92/d6/a52ea23e-e3b5-47aa-b3f2-8c7ace5e2d7c.PNG"></p>
