A modern wall mounted light bar for above a bathroom mirror. Three GU10 spots point down through the recessed bottom plate, hidden behind the front fascia so you see a clean bar and the light washes over the mirror. The fixture parameter picks how the spots are held: printed fixed cups, printed tilt cartridges on filament hinge pins, or store bought recessed GU10 fixtures that clamp into round cutouts in the plate with their own spring clips and their own tilt mechanism. The back is flat against the wall with rounded top corners that blend into the spherical front corners; one rounding radius for everything, sharp bottom edge, a service window behind each spot and a uniform bottom rim. The printed cups descend from mick/lamp-fittings. The bar splits into segments with dowel joints sized for a small printer bed.

What is this
A modern wall mounted light bar for above a bathroom mirror. Three GU10 spots point down through the recessed bottom plate, hidden behind the front fascia so you see a clean bar and the light washes over the mirror. The fixture parameter picks how the spots are held: printed fixed cups, printed tilt cartridges on filament hinge pins, or store bought recessed GU10 fixtures that clamp into round cutouts in the plate with their own spring clips and their own tilt mechanism. The back is flat against the wall with rounded top corners that blend into the spherical front corners; one rounding radius for everything, sharp bottom edge, a service window behind each spot and a uniform bottom rim. The printed cups descend from mick/lamp-fittings. The bar splits into segments with dowel joints sized for a small printer bed.
What you use it for
For store bought recessed fixtures: measure the saw diameter, bezel diameter and required recess depth from the box and set cutout_d, bezel_d and recess_depth to match. The inside of the bar must be at least the recess depth: make height at least lip plus recess_depth plus wall, so 140 at the defaults of lip 15 and depth 120, or lower the lip to 10 and use 135. The preview draws a grey dummy of each fixture at full recess depth, so a bar that is too shallow shows the clash immediately in the cutaway; show_fixtures switches these dummies on and off and they are never part of a print. Print the segments, glue them on 4 mm dowels, push the fixtures into their cutouts from below until the clips grab the plate, wire them in parallel with Wago or terminal blocks through the service windows, feed the mains through the nearest window and hang the bar on the keyholes. For the printed variants: cups are fixed, cartridges tilt on 1.75 mm filament pins secured with glue or a melted head in their countersunk pockets. LED GU10 lamps only, PETG or ASA for a bathroom, out of the shower zones, and have the mains connection checked if you are not certain of it.
Design notes
The recessed fixtures clamp on the 3 mm plate exactly as they would on a ceiling panel, so no printed retention is needed; the bezel sits inside the open trough under the plate and the lip hides it from the front. The bezel must fit the trough: depth minus twice rim needs to exceed the bezel diameter, which holds at the defaults with a 93 mm bezel in a 100 mm deep bar. The shell is one convex hull with a flat back plate with rounded top corners blending into the front corner spheres, the cavity is the same hull inset by one wall and the bottom opening follows the outline at the rim offset. Keyholes sit in the columns between the service windows, offset from the segment cuts. part = segment exports one segment on its back for printing; part = cartridge exports the tilt cartridge for the printed tilting variant.
Parameters
fixture picks printed cups, printed tilt cartridges or store bought recessed fixtures, and show_fixtures toggles the grey preview dummies of the lamps and fixtures. cutout_d, bezel_d and recess_depth describe the recessed fixture; measure yours. total_width, height and depth size the bar, lip sets the fascia drop, rim the bottom rim thickness and rounding the single radius for all rounded edges. max_tilt and tilt_angle apply to the printed cartridges only. spots and segments set the count of lights and print sections, segment_index picks the section shown. wall and plate_t shape the shell, gu10_hole_span matches a bare socket for the printed variants, cutaway opens the display view and color_body sets the display colour.
