    Dang. I gotta say I was skeptical given all the “cheap” routes you took…but colored me RGB’d, the final effect was impressive. I may use this for my theater. Well done and thanks for sharing.

      @SurelyLightFoot Před 2 lety +6

      Well considering that even in the professional scene condoms are used as temporary replacement diffusers on huge displays it not a stretch that you can get a nice light setup on the cheap.
      Edit: speaking from experience, worked on a display for the Grammies during college. All the broken diffusers were replaced with condoms.

    Like others have mentioned, this was definitely "budget", and I was skeptical too when I saw that paper going in as a diffuser as too how good it would actually look, but oh my. This turned out way better than I was expecting

    • @ChrisMaherDIY
      @ChrisMaherDIY  Před 2 lety +1

      Lol yeah I wasn't sure how the paper was going to look either but it looks great! Could certainly use some acrylic but its a little more expensive and unless you have a big piece, you might see little gaps at the seams! Thanks so much for watching!

    That looks incredibly for the materials you've used! to think how much cheaper paper is than acrylic to still get that finish! Awesome Stuff Chris!

    • @ChrisMaherDIY
      @ChrisMaherDIY  Před 2 lety +1

      Thanks! Yeah much cheaper than acrylic. I wish i could find acrylic that is one solid piece but i think i would have to have a plastic manufacturing plant nearby otherwise it would be astronomically expensive. I'm just glad the paper worked great! Thanks so much for watching!

  • @djshotzny
    @djshotzny Před měsĂ­cem +1

    What amazed me the most was the blue paint tape that you used just to stick things on the wall!!!! I had to rewatch it again because i didnt catch that the first time around. But even that roll up you did to manage the cables made me laugh. You really got it figured out here and the results were very impressive!😮 A job well done! I think im a have to use your roll up idea to manage my cables too haha thank you for this video!

    I use WLED for every led thing I make. I’ve bought close to 30 esp devices for projects for myself and other people, even made a control panel with a power button, brightness control, and preset selector knob that works amazingly well. Also fairyreef is my favorite palette.

    You should invest in a set of feather boards for your table saw. They keep the piece of material that you are cutting pressed against the fence.

    I'd call the second operation(second and third cuts) Rabbeting.
    Granted you're not using that connect to anything but I think it's still the term.
    LEDs don't like making turns in that direction. The little clips you used or soldering is nearly required.
    I like that paper idea for diffusion. Something I haven't nailed yet for my projects.
    Looks great!

  • @mephInc
    @mephInc Před 2 lety +10

    Little pro tip:
    Don't cut 45s on your inside corners. A cleaner and better fit is to run all the way into the corner on one. For the piece that will now butt up to that, cut it just a hair longer than you need. Then start on the free end and work toward the corner. You'll have to tap the end into the corner. After that, a tiny bit of wood putty across the top and inside edge and you'll have what appears to be a seamless connection.
    The reason for this is that getting walls perfectly perpendicular to each other and getting two perfect 45s is a lot less likely than simple square cuts.

      No worries. Everyone starts somewhere. Also, if you have normal trim, you'll need a coping saw for my trick to work.

    Well, all in here makes sense to me. :) We use paper for making lanterns after all! If you want to still go the cheap route but make it a little more resistant, try different fabrics instead of papers. You can explore patterns and textures, see what you like the most. Very nice budget build for an awesome effect. Will be saving this.
