Workshop LED Panel Light Build Part 2

The second of a two part film: In this episode I make a remote switch panel to enable individual control of the 8 LED panels which form the lighting frame built in episode 1.
If you plan to buy some LED panels yourself, be sure to see the postscript towards the end (7’ 43”)
Contains sawing, milling, soldering, drilling and tapping in the home machine shop.
Created with subtitles (click the CC box) for the hard of hearing, or when you need to keep the volume low.

I know I'm late, but wanted to say how much I love how massively over-engineered that switch box is

[@mrporridge2304]

Nice little project again. Going to start my own "KZbin makes it look easy" list with soldering at the top... and that's all on you after watching this episode! 🤣👍

[@JimmiePorterAtStuartArts]

The international space station would be honored to have such a well designed lighting system. Bravo!

[@RayTurley497]

It is refreshing to find someone who likes machining, electronics and fabricating, is willing to share and understands the importance of good lighting when filming so it is more enjoyable for the viewer to see what is happening in a clearer manner. Well done.

[@iamkhosro9544]

Hi bro, just wanna say THANK YOU for sharing your detailed experiences, machining skills and creative points. I learnt a lot at the age of 56!!

[@eatenkate]

It is so nice to watch you 'needlessly' complicate constructions just because you can, it makes making stuff so much more fun (:

[@bravefastrabbit770]

Just goes to show how this man thinks deeper on the smallest things.

[@WaRn00b85]

That switch box of yours is SO over engineered for what it needs to do, but man, did it come out nice! I love it! 😀

[@Igorrr3k]

I have just come across this channel whilst looking for anodising tips. I can honestly say this is up there with one of the best DIY channels out there, very impressive production. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge!

[@marcyd2007]

Kudos for that box dude, I'm glad you stuck with it

[@worldoftrev4159]

You sir have more talent in your little finger, than I do in my whole body. Just discovered your channel, absolutely loving your style mate 👍

[@tattoos1988]

Now that’s what I call quality handmade no cheap rubbish the detail is fantastic I’d buy the kit from you if you ever made one lol great couple of videos now I’m confident in trying my own lighting system all the best stay safe god bless

[@ExSheriffFattyBoySkinnyArms]

Impressive as usual!

[@PriddyShiddy]

I was proud of myself for drilling holes in a hobby box and getting the wires right when I had a manual mill... absolutely amazing quality of build and video!!

[@jjbode1]

Rustinox sent me. He was right. I've subscribed, watched both your playlists and look forward to more. Thanks!

[@TheRecreationalMachinist]

Thanks for taking a look @jjb and thanks to #Rustinox for the mention 👍 🇬🇧

[@intjonmiller]

Just found your channel and loving it. That box was fantastic! I've tried to make project boxes out of aluminum tube a couple times but never came up with a design that looked very good. Thanks for the solution!!

[@tomagodsey]

The switch box part was the best. I was hoping for a pass through a polishing wheel to make it pretty. Great work.

[@LilKing420s]

Again! VERY interesting... content as well as production. Well done! I look forward to seeing what you have coming in the future. ✌

[@NellsMechanicalManCave]

That has to be the nicest switch enclosure I've ever seen. Lovely workmanship!

[@BrilliantDesignOnline]

Absolutely ridiculous overkill...Gorgeous, beautiful, fantastic, BRILLIANT, overkill...HUGELY appreciated :-)

[@BrilliantDesignOnline]

Forgot: Anodize the switchbox gold, because that is what it is, pure gold.

[@tattoos1988]

Cr@cking video mate I have a very dark hobby room this has given me an idea of how to boost the lighting thank you I’m now a new subscriber and looking forward to working through your videos god bless

[@andrew_the_machinist]

Wow! Extremely satisfying watching this build

[@LA6UOA]

Your videos are pure therapy! Thanks!

[@markclelland3510]

Nice project and very neatly done. Thank you for sharing.

[@deemstyle]

I just recently found your channel while I was searching for model engine stuff. Your syringe engine came up. New subscriber here- this channel is absolutely fantastic. Your attention to detail is really fun to watch. I hope you produce more videos soon!

[@kearneyboy]

You won't that switch panel at city electrical. Bombproof. Nice build 👍

[@Pushyhog]

heath robinson stuff looks great at your home shop.

[@oldschoolengineer58]

Nice work Thanks for sharing

[@cncdavenz]

Nice work. Thanks for the video. Cheers Dave.

[@KiczzciK]

I don't know what you are being paid at your job but you deserve a raise, or at least a lot more views on this channel. Looking forward to see what you are doing next. I appreciate the time you put into these videos. Quality work which I'll admit might even be better than my fathers!

[@Turco70]

Great !! excellently filmed and edited like all your videos !!

[@gadjetsvideo]

Great video, the switchhbox was a bit over the top but like you said, it's the fun that counts and I like making stuff as well so I know what you mean.

[@TomMakeHere]

That's a nice setup!

[@patrickbuildsalot5348]

You defo need to make one on how to solder like a pro.

[@frvo]

Brilliant!

[@fx1c333]

Fantastic videos and building skills. Get a mig welder it's easier and the non gas type welds like a stick. Keep them coming.

[@Waynesixstrings]

Liked the vids thank you

[@cwp000]

Wait, wait, you also need a Master Switch to toggle ALL the lights on/off! I mean really, by the time you turn all eight on or off you'll be exhausted. (I'll let myself out now) Seriously, nice job, the light panel looks great!

[@drpipe]

Left a comment on prt 1 and subbed.. thought I would watch this one.. wasn’t disappointed. I have a small KZbin channel abt plumbing and have to say.. big thanks for posting and taking the time to create this content. I appreciate all the cuts and edits very nice. I’m guessing you know the boys at Arceurotrade? Look forward to the next one 👍

[@Preso58]

Thanks. I think I just need more lights, not bigger ones.

[@OscarFlores-gh2bs]

Over kill but looks nice hope you had fun building it. how long did it take. nice wiring jog

[@haroldthibault9921]

Military grade stuff made !

[@rossclutterbuck1060]

I want all your toys

[@TrailBoundco]

whats that really smooth vice you have?

[@patrickbuildsalot5348]

Over engineered to fuck. - i love it.

[@edgeeffect]

Oh yeah... I take back what I said in part 1... much more controlable like this.

[@Zakamooza]

iv watched couple of your vids and all i have to say is , do you ever make mistakes ?

[@wober777]

...and in order to hold down this one pesky wire, I built an industrial metal foundry and melted down my neighbors Volkswagen. I then proceeded to hand forge the steel wire clamp with a tiny hammer I made from a handful of melted down mitutoyo dial indicators I had lying around the shop. Before encrusting the wire clamp in fine sapphires and rubies I felt it was necessary to electroplate it in gold harvest from a half dozen Faberge eggs.

[@Sondretheman71]

Subscribed, Really like your videos! But please do something about the music in the future 😁

[@artnels2]

Actually was a bit repetitive hence annoying. (Save yourself the time during editing.)

[@nikolasbbq]

Shit, I can't even find a screwdriver at home to put a knob back on the drawer.

[@robinknight333]

Would you do a job for me if I send it to you?

[@TheRecreationalMachinist]

Sorry, I've barely time to work on my own projects without doing work for other people. Thanks for watching.

[@chrisharvie-smith486]

So the green and yellow wire is earth but the green and yellow wires are switched mains. Milling the insulation instead of the hole. Neither is a good choice for electrical safety. Recouped points for heatshrinking everything.
