Nice..! Instead of using expensive wood, that for most of it only will be visible from the side, use inexpensive wood and dye. It will reduce the costs substantially.
correct me if im wrong, but theres no need for it to be connected in series. U could actually skip drillin top part, by just connecting all leds pararell in the bottom part
tell me how, it's parrarel connection anyway, it will only lower the current running through the led tapes, but no LED whatsoever. (It'd affect voltage only good way in case u made tapes veeeeery long). Trust me i'm and engineer :D
Is there a site where you can learn all about how to connect and solder LEDs? Maybe some calculators or at least formulas (i can spread sheet them if so..). I never had any electronic lessons in school and im 37 now. Affording a great soldering station was not a problem at this age which helps as the soldering part wasn't too hard. But when i go to online stores and there's voltages here and voltages there (24, 12), power supplies and ........ it makes my head melt :( Normal old school lamps i could handle as the formulas are pretty straight forward but LEDs are quite different, aren't they?
wow, I've spent like half an hour looking for that comment :) If u need help u can write to me. It's very easy, especially if it comes to plugging diodes like that. When it comes to powering only 12V diodes (or 3 like it is on led strip, which respond) it works perfectly like lamp. I guess u can find some tutorials on the internet, I know very good channel but it's Polish :/ Only difference for amatour between diode and lamp is how it response to voltage change (easy to burn if u give too much voltage, that's why they always use resistor) and it allows current to go 1 way only.
+Krisq Gq I work at a place where we help people who's been away from work for a long due to sickness of some sort. One way to boost confidence is by making stuff. We later sell these things and all the profit goes back into the organisation. It's an ever changing place as people come and go and they all have different difficulties and talents. I had an idea about making mushroom lights (there's a British guy who made a video about them). His leds used 5v but the ones i could find were all 12 or 24. I would like to be able to use a standard cell phone charger with their usb connection. That would let customers power them easily and they most likely have spare ones at home already. I tried to figure out how to make the 12V compatible with 5V from the USB but after a while i had to give up and focus on other things :/
Really great video. I love what people create with these led strips. By the way some of your on screen measurements have cm and mm mixed up. Keep up the great work.
one thing you could use for the top instead of tape would be to install some magnets. that would hold the top on well and be a more "finished" look than the tape. really nice lamp
That is super cool and really smart, but some of your conversions are way off. 15/32" is most definitely not 1.8mm, 11/32" is not 1.4mm, 3/32" is not 0.37mm. I think you may possibly have the decimal point in the wrong place. Also, why did you snip off the connector only to solder it back on?
Nice job! Also, outstanding video presentation -- many an alleged DIY YT Adviser could learn a lot from your attention to detail, camera work, lighting, and sound quality.
Very nice video for a very nice project. Even if it could seem simple, you did it so well that I'll follow you from now. I'm asking how you made circle so easily ? Did you use a screw to keep the center at the same place when you rotate the wood while cutting it ?
Hey man! Your work is awesome! it would be nice to see a DIY wood headphone carrying case, I'm planning to do one, but I just don't know how, I have never seen one to buy, so here is an idea for you
Thanks, I'm glad you liked it. Gloves aren't a good idea when using many power tools because the gloves can get caught by the tool and pull your hand into the machine.
Very nice project, but it would be much easier if you connected them in parallel (yes you can do that), so you dont need a hollow top part. The strips are marked for cutting especially so you could wire them in parallel.
God how messed up the imperial* system is.... I like the idea of using seperate LED strips though. I was expecting just a single led strip somehow setup.
+Makify1 Wow!!! what an awesome project,all of your projects are amazing anyways,I just randomly commented in this one,I feel bad that you dont have more subscribers,you have been here since 2012 and longer!!! but you put so much effort in your videos,to write each product name as an overlay for each screw that you put in,thats just enough for me to say that you put a LOT of time into these videos!!!
Nice lamp and nice video, no annoying music and very clear camera work!
Makify1 could make wine out of water if he wanted to. We're extremely grateful to have had the opportunity to sponsor this video. If the community likes these LED projects that integrate our aluminum channels, we'll be more than glad to sponsor future videos!
what a breakthrough you just taught me about soldering. I've never pretinned any wires before that looks so much easier!
Pretinning makes soldering much easier :)
Nice..!
Instead of using expensive wood, that for most of it only will be visible from the side, use inexpensive wood and dye. It will reduce the costs substantially.
Perfect example of how a little bit of imagination and dedication can turn some simple stuffs into something amazing.
Awsome Man ...patience are necessary to make such a masterpiece ...Really Nice Work
Thank you!
that circle cutting jig! genius!
That's a great lamp! The led channels look neat.
+Steve Carmichael Thanks Steve!
correct me if im wrong, but theres no need for it to be connected in series. U could actually skip drillin top part, by just connecting all leds pararell in the bottom part
I was going to say the same thing. It would cut down on lots of work
tell me how, it's parrarel connection anyway, it will only lower the current running through the led tapes, but no LED whatsoever. (It'd affect voltage only good way in case u made tapes veeeeery long).

Awoke to raid the fridge,flipped tv on,and hit RUclips,this popped up,kept me up for another hour,awesome movie!!!
Wow, I'm glad you liked it!
I really like that you added your outtakes to the video. :) Gave me a good laugh
Really great video. I love what people create with these led strips. By the way some of your on screen measurements have cm and mm mixed up.

What I love in Videos like this is, that this whole machines he is using are more expensive then this endproduct :I
Cool lamp!
+Bruce A. Ulrich Thanks Bruce, I appreciate it!
Nice job! Also, outstanding video presentation -- many an alleged DIY YT Adviser could learn a lot from your attention to detail, camera work, lighting, and sound quality.
Very cool. I really admire your voice over work and editing, so clear and concise.
+Dan The Maker Man Thank you! It's good to know that people (at least one) like my style.
+Makify1 don't worry, EVERYONE does.
I was on the fence about subscribing, but because of the little bloopers reel at the end I did. Keep you the good work!
Thank you, I appreciate it!
in my opinion it would look so much better if you would have a plexi or something to match the width of the top and the bottom
Nice work. Looks good! Great video.
+cjhoyle Thank you!
great work
This one needs lots of effort and hats off to your work, I love it. an will try to make it
he really deserve more views man
Very nice work and beautiful design!
+Scrap wood City Thank you, Scrap Wood City!
I want to know more about your "homemade circle-cutting jig" since apparently I'm in mid brain-fart.
Way kewl, keep creating.
I have a video about it ruclips.net/video/7ZWn7gvlW1s/видео.html
Beautiful piece of art
so easy when you have the right tools
I really like this making of this lamp. good Job 👍
nice project brother!!
Very nice video for a very nice project. Even if it could seem simple, you did it so well that I'll follow you from now. I'm asking how you made circle so easily ? Did you use a screw to keep the center at the same place when you rotate the wood while cutting it ?
I freaking LOVE your videos! Especially the RUclips play button one!
Thank you! I really appreciate it.
clear, nice presentation, I like the dimensions on the pieces... and nice clear voice and appearance is good! thanks for the video.
Thank you! I'm glad you liked the video.
A nice combination of multiple skills...Nice job!
Thank you!
This is pretty awesome man!
Really nice lamp!
+Jolien Brebels Thanks!
Your new ordered blade arrived fast! It took only seconds! :)
+Dirk Biers If only it was that fast in real life...
Looks good, I like that design. Thank you for sharing.
Great design, very nice!!!
really nice project. so much attention to details
Thank you!
Cool looking lamp, man!
Wonderful project!!
thats really cool vinny! great project thanks for sharing!
Nice video and awesome lamp, thanks for sharing!
you could add a clear pvc tubing of same diameter of the wooden base on top of led
Hey man! Your work is awesome! it would be nice to see a DIY wood headphone carrying case, I'm planning to do one, but I just don't know how, I have never seen one to buy, so here is an idea for you
Thanks for the good idea!
I like that project, nice product. Congrats.
Very good work
Nice work. Looks awesome!
finaaaally you make a new video! i love your videos and your creativity
+Jesus Camarillo Thanks! This one took longer than I expected.
This was awesome.... Can you make it with oak and pine?
lol end segment of video is hilarious!
When you countersink the metal, place it on a piece of scrap wood, it will prevent the metal from flaring at the back.
Good tip!
How about using one long screw and couple of guide pins to attach top plate from inside of rails.
Great lamp
That is the largest 1.8mm hole I've ever seen! XD
great job
Awesome work rly hard work, but i think it will be better look with glass between up and down
nice project... and nice seiko 5!
+homer power Thanks! Good eye
It is cool.i will try when i back to home.
Cool design!!
nice!
Awesome video!
Awesome video man
Thanks for this wonderful idea
Awesome work
Thank you!
Good job 👌
Fantastico, enhorabuena, saludos desde españa
Really Cool
Adorable!
I like the ending lol
Great project! Don
Muy buen trabajo! Enhorabuena! :)
good design
Hy ... Realy Nice Lamp. Thanks.
verrrry nice
thanks
Bro, It's really impressive.. Good handling with wood + lighitng
Be careful while you are using tool machine.. Don't foreget to wear your glove.
Thanks, I'm glad you liked it. Gloves aren't a good idea when using many power tools because the gloves can get caught by the tool and pull your hand into the machine.
really nice
Great project. Thanks for your video!
+Adde Nilsson I'm glad you like it!
You are really good and soon you'll get like a million of subs cause' you put a lot of effort in your videos. Congratulations!!!
Thank you!
Really nice!
may I ask how much was the total spend?
awesome videos
dude
Thanks!
Great project as always. Would you mind adding an affiliate link for the band saw blade to the description? (I have the same band saw).
+49cfr I'm glad you like the video! I added a link to the blade.
Super!!!!
SUPER!!!!!!
good job bro!!!
You are so Cool and funny. Love the last scenes :-)
Thanks!
Very interesting! looks great :)
+Cactus! workshop Thanks Cactus! Worskshop!
Very nice project, but it would be much easier if you connected them in parallel (yes you can do that), so you dont need a hollow top part. The strips are marked for cutting especially so you could wire them in parallel.
Yes, wiring them in parallel would be easier. I didn't realize you could wire them in parallel until after I made the lamp.
Oh okay, it was just a tip for other viewers who would want to build this too. But you made an awesome vid!
Yannick Buelens Thanks for the tip!
Really nice to your work, I would like to know what method to use to rotate the squares of wood and cut perfectly circular? Thank you.
I have a video explaining it. ruclips.net/video/7ZWn7gvlW1s/видео.html
Thanks Makify1
Wow! That's an awesome project! Thanks!
Awesome! 👍
What part of Chicago are you in? I live in Chicago and would love to help you with projects! I love working on things like this!
is there any way that u have these templates in 3d print files?
9:59 - Parallel*, not series.
Awesome work, subbed! :D
Thank you!
God how messed up the imperial* system is....
I like the idea of using seperate LED strips though. I was expecting just a single led strip somehow setup.
Imperial system*
Or did you really want to say the metric system is fucked up?
imperial is what I meant.. ...
How can the metric system be fucked up if it is the one that almost the entire world uses?
Jac Lennox no one is saying the metric system is.....
I had an error and said metric rather than imperial..... it has been corrected now
Oh I see. My bad then!
+Makify1 Wow!!! what an awesome project,all of your projects are amazing anyways,I just randomly commented in this one,I feel bad that you dont have more subscribers,you have been here since 2012 and longer!!! but you put so much effort in your videos,to write each product name as an overlay for each screw that you put in,thats just enough for me to say that you put a LOT of time into these videos!!!
Thank you! I'm glad you appreciate all the details I try to add to the videos.
That's so awesome
how much would you sell it already made?
Good
