thanks for everything steve! i was so proud of myself for rigging up that motor last night. i was just snippin wires… have no electrical or engineering type of knowledge / skills … made it super easy and now i got my color wheel goin!
Thank you, great diy project! I'm thinking of making smaller version for 35mm slide projector and fitting cheap led lamp to have light show for sleeples nights. It would draw much less power than lcd projector and there would be no pixel grid+succulent colors!! All best in 2023
I gather it would be super sweet to layer two of those on opposing sides, moving opposing directions, would almost make a tunnel effect, though you'd need 4 of em to get a real tunnel.
I've gotten them from random places on the internet. Just have to look around. However, I have been thinking about buying them in bulk and selling kits, if there would be interest.
Are you familiar with the lighting effects used on the TV series voyage to the bottom of the sea in both the reactor room,and on the flying submarine to simulate the energy output?
@@LiquidLightLab TV series...the reactor room has a large panel on the wall showing the energy output...it used a unique color wheel effect along with what I thing were two revolving disk with oval shaped holes cut in them rotating in two different directions. I loved the effect but have never quite been able to duplicate it
some ppl might also want to draw out the pattern on paper first, then they know all their pieces will fit how they want em, and can trace from the paper to the gels.
Hi, Steve, I prefer to use fluidity to entrance people & enhance their trip. I believe liquids move so much better than just plain colours. A liquiscope creates a much more random, unpredictable, sublime, potent fluidity that flows smoothly with more beauty. I like the brightness of the colours, the way they hug every curve they touch. I love the fact that by changeing the angle it distorts & stretches the colour formations in a totally cosmically, absorbing way. A liquiscope joins all objects & people into one living canvas & transforms everything it touches. I prefer a living life form than basically a dead one. I also like to layer inanimate discs with bright, unpredictable, ever changing, unique , spontaneous, flowing liquid, inter-changable discs. Plus, apart from randomly or deliberately adding different coloured oils & floating celluloid cutouts, it takes relatively very little time to create. Criticising you is not my intention, but I so much prefer light & colour that is quintessentially alive. But I do really like your impulsive colours & intricately designed shapes. I also appreciate the love of creating aesthetically groovy aspects to enhance the beholder`s experience. Best wishes, Don. X
DON FARQUIMI The wheel is not meant to be an element in its own, but as one tool in a palette of effects. In a proper, analog light show, multiple projectors and images are used, in addition to liquids, to create a hallucinatory, psychedelic experience.

Hey Steve, just wondering if the motor has to be 20rpm. I looked online and found quite a few motors just like it but I couldn't find one that's 20rpm. Does it matter? Can I use a higher rpm?
I forget at the moment, but I think one type is 1/16" and another is 1/8". Thinner one is easier to bend, but the thicker plastic refracts light better.

Awesome!
Thanks Steve great lockdown project!!! ❤️

Thank you Steve! I love this! Nice sound effect.
Thankyou❤
Sweet tutorial thank you 👍👍👍 u r the bomb sir really been enjoying the videos Can’t wait for my dyes to get here!
Awesome info brother ✨😎👍

Thanks for the informative video!
Thank you!
Thank you so much for the lesson amd for inspiration
Thank you so much! There's not much information about this technique
wouldn't it be better to drill before peeling?
Love to know where you got the motor and that controller from Steve. Great video.
I've gotten them from random places on the internet. Just have to look around. However, I have been thinking about buying them in bulk and selling kits, if there would be interest.
@@LiquidLightLab do it
@@LiquidLightLab YES there is interest- at least I know I would buy a kit or two for this stuff, I can't stop watching these tutorials
Hi steve, it's captain D. Light from france. I am curious to know what do you use motor 12 V more than 220 V?
What kind of glue did you use to affix the gels to the acrylic? Thanks
54nathanael It’s a clear tack glue.

I haven't seen the movie in a long time. Can you tell me more about it?

Looking for the flange you used to mount the wheel. Do you know the proper name and sizes for what you used here? Thanks! 🙏🏼
It's called a flange. I don't remember at the moment the size, though. It is about an inch or so in diameter.
some ppl might also want to draw out the pattern on paper first, then they know all their pieces will fit how they want em, and can trace from the paper to the gels.
What gauge/type of electric wiring did you use to connect the driver to the motor? Ive been trying to track down the right wire...
I forget, but maybe like 16. A thinner one, there's not too much electricity that is used. It's only 12v
also, ever used super 77 spray adhesive?

It can be anything you like, but slower is usualy better.
Thanks for sharing! But I still have a question - what is the thickness of the plexiglass?
I forget at the moment, but I think one type is 1/16" and another is 1/8". Thinner one is easier to bend, but the thicker plastic refracts light better.
Thank you for your comprehensive answer!
