LED lamp made of wood and acrylic with smart controller - The Cube

[@schnuffelhase1968]

Nice design! But please never work with gloves at your table saw ... we had one colleague at work who lost 2 fingers because his glove got caught by the saw blade and then his hand was sucked into the blade 😢

Great project, I would have liked to see more on how you made the LED bulb for inside, it went from heat shrink to LED inside.

[@RepRevMake]

Thanks, sorry it went a little fast there. But I just spin the LED strip around the controller so that both fit inside the cube.

Well done!! Nice work!

Thank you!

What are the dimensions for the wood in each individual cube? Great project!

[@RepRevMake]

Thank you! The wooden boards I used were 18mm, there are two on top of each other so each individual cube is 32x32mm, which makes the whole cube 104x104mm (3x32 + 4mm + 4mm)

I made the same block but I have an issue that the LEF light is not showing to the outside. The strip I am using is 5v. did you use 12 or 24v? I haven't sanded it to 400 grit yet.

[@RepRevMake]

I used 12v, but it is also important how many diodes there are per meter and the size of the diodes I used RGB 5050 led strips with 60 leds per meter

Bonjour Quelle est la colle que vous utilisez et les dimensions des cubes Cordialement

[@RepRevMake]

Sorry but I do not know French, but if google translated you correctly you were wondering which glue I used. To glue the wood together, I use regular wood glue, but what I reckon you were wondering is what glue I used between the wood and the plexiglass. That was CA glue (Cyanoacrylate) also known as superglue. The CA glue I used also has a spray that makes it dry right away. The glue I used is bought in Norway and is not sold outside Scandinavia, but you can only search for Cyanoacrylate glue. The size of each block is 3.2cmx3.2cm.

@@RepRevMake Hello thank you very much for your answer good continuation

Привет. Чем брызгаете на акрил?

[@RepRevMake]

It is an activator for the glue, so that it hardens immediately

[@danysalgadopichon9988]

Los venden ??

[@RepRevMake]

sorry, I do not understand what you're saying?

[@Apfel_Esser]

Dont wear gloves while operating any maschines!

[@RepRevMake]

I know, I'll be better at remembering to take them off. I feel naked without gloves :-P

[@FullSailDale1]

What he said! Especially important in an instructional video, because people see you do it and think it's okay! All fun and games until somebody loses a finger!!

[@RepRevMake]

@@FullSailDale1 I have stopped wearing gloves, I have some projects that have been going on for some time where there may be clips where I wear gloves. But in all my future videos, I will not wear gloves when using these machines.
