[@DanZalinsky]

Thank you!

[@Memaw_life]

I can’t believe this doesn’t have more views. TY! This saved me so much, money great idea!

[@DanZalinsky]

Thanks!! Glad I was able to help you out!

[@yagamilight909]

Professional work... I will use your idea with govee RGB because it gives you more options while choosing the colors side.

[@DanZalinsky]

Thanks! Yeah there are so many options when choosing colors with the RGB lights.

[@jrholmes79]

Thanks Dan…I’m following your plan for my music studio light feature. Thanks for your video!

[@DanZalinsky]

No problem. Glad my video helped you!

[@jayphilbin2871]

One suggestion- glue up the hexagons before painting. White (or carpenters) glue works better on raw wood than a painted surface. The glue penetrates the wood fibers for a stronger joint.

[@DanZalinsky]

Ah thanks for the tip. The only issue is that I wouldn't want to get any paint on the foam inserts after then are attached to the hexagons. I could just tape over the cut surface when painting or staining.

[@duramax0103]

Cool project. What is the size of the cutout plates?

[@DanZalinsky]

Thanks!! The plates were 9”. Bought them from Target

[@CHRISpective_]

That looks so CLEANNN

[@DanZalinsky]

Thanks!! 🔨😎

[@bambatsa1310]

Hey great job. just one question. wouldn't making the groove before you cut the pieces be easier? or maybe it would not work for some reason? Again great job.

[@DanZalinsky]

Yeah I found it easier to cut the groove after. Thats because when you are cutting the angles on each piece you have to flip the would to cut the next angle. This would be messed up if the groove were on one side.

[@deejeemadrox1866]

@@DanZalinsky So, make two grooves then...lol

[@jdagreek]

Great job I am working on the idea in my mind right now I think I am going to use the Govee RGBIC and possibly put a back on it with a reflective something ??? I am going to use a router for the groove. Been debating on 4 or 3.5 inch sides ?

[@DanZalinsky]

Thanks! Yeah there are a million things to do with these lights. You’re going to make the hexagonal lights? Or a different design?

[@jdagreek]

@@DanZalinsky Hexagons, also using a backplate for reflections. You had some great tips! Thanks Again

[@DanZalinsky]

@@jdagreek Ahh okay. Thanks. Let me know how they come out! I wanna see what final design you come up with!

[@srimurugathasponnampalam6276]

Amazing Work! I have just one question. Which groove cutter size for the router (where the LEDs go through) did you take. I build it based on your tutorial for my school project.

[@DanZalinsky]

Thanks! I used a 3/4" router bit. Seemed to work out just fine.

[@1basskilla]

Excellent Job

[@DanZalinsky]

Thanks!

[@YoBoyken123]

The plates look plsstic...what kind are they, plastic or styrofoam? Love the video.

[@DanZalinsky]

Yeah they were just styrofoam plates. I looked at different plastics first. But I saw videos of others using styrofoam plates and they looked the best and were the cheapest. Thanks!! 😎

[@k-entriv]

HELLO FRIEND, GREETINGS FROM CHILE, I WANTED TO ASK YOU WHAT ARE THE EXACT MEASURES, IT LOOKS GREAT, GOOD WORK, CONGRATULATIONS.

How many meters am i need led strips light?

[@DanZalinsky]

The one I bought for my project was 32ft long. So roughly 10 meters.

[@alexandertschanz1532]

How thick is the saw blade that you used for the groove to put the styrofoam plates in? THX

[@DanZalinsky]

The blade was 1/8" thick.

[@deejeemadrox1866]

why not cut the groove first, and then make those 4 inch pieces? Seems to me that is way faster.

[@CW3.33]

Hello, can someone help me, I have 10 hexagons and 5 meters of led strip, what shape can I make?

[@justjosh8704]

How did you get the wires in the wall? and where did you connect the adapter, on the other side of the wall! Or did you do electrical work?

[@DanZalinsky]

I just drilled a hole through the wall and ran the wire through the ceiling. The adapter is behind one of the lights. I have an outlet in the drop ceiling so I just plugged it into that.

[@mystic8579]

Thats soooo good! Thanks for idea

[@DanZalinsky]

No problemo. Glad you liked it!

[@buildfrom]

Very impressed.

[@DanZalinsky]

Thanks! I really appreciate it!

[@stephaneloumey489]

Hello i Can use this project :) wat IS matériel please ? I'm french sorry for my english 😓😂

[@Vansh-yu6th]

The two outside leds are different colours because it's not receiving enough power try using a 36w adapter or a 48w adapter

[@Vansh-yu6th]

Great vid thou

[@DanZalinsky]

Thanks!

[@DanZalinsky]

Yeah for some reason it’s just with the blue. If it’s just blue those outside lights don’t even light up.

[@amare7810]

I done it with triangle nanoleaf with 2$ only for everything.

[@DanZalinsky]

Wow that’s inexpensive. How did they turn out?

[@hamidehabbasi4546]

thanks you helped me too much

[@tansanite09]

Same video like chris maher - just a copy…
