The Glass Eye Studio “Celestial Super Nova” is quite an awesome piece of glass work … I have no idea how these can be manufactured in any quantity with consistency! Perhaps I should find a class? Glass work seems all the rage these days!
You can buy a base with lighting effects, but where is the fun in that? Here’s a project to make a base for the glass ball. Because it is going to sit on a desk, I decided to combine two functions:
- a multi-colour “glow” effect to light the ball
- or switch to power a 3528 LED strip (1m, 60 LEDs, 12V, cold white)
As always, all notes, schematics and code are in the Little Electronics & Arduino Projects repo on GitHub
Here’s is a video with a few soothing minutes of the glow effect;-) …
