Not sure what you meant by this though:

To fit in the 6"x12" walnut panel I used, at first I designed with 3" in width of the lamp, but after designing everything and about to cut, I realise the cut pattern were too near each other. So I hastily correct it by reducing the overall width, from 3" to 2 7/8" by reducing the outer edge of the lamp. But that lead to it being quite thin and at assembly, so broke/ complained. So next time, I will keep the outer edge dimensions to about 1/8, and reduce the inner design instead, longer to do but safer for assembly and long term use.

Balancing open areas to let light out and strength to hold the piece together is always a challenge.

I’m a big fan of GE Bright Stik LED Bulbs:

That’s pretty cool! I found this file somewhere online and cut it out of 3mm plywood and backed it with tracing paper. I put a color-changing LED array in mine and it sort of gives it a stained glass look.

I would be interested in it. What is it made of?
It’s made of 3mm Baltic birch plywood that I got on Amazon.
My first thought was that it would make a great new look for the Doctor.

Looks awesome!! 
Thanks! Again, I really can’t take credit for the design, but the implementation was a little different.
Wonder with LED lighting it could be run off of batteries and cut the cord.
I’m fond of the 3000K bulbs that have been showing up lately. I find their slight yellow to be a happy medium between the orangish color of 2700K and the harsh blue of 5000K.

I tried at first but the effect is meh and the vertical space used before a light was too much (because of the battery) finally, it is quite harder to access it to open and close than a power cord.
I get that. My brain was to have them on the patio.
Weirdly I can see everything in either 2700k or 5000k just by changing which eye I look from. Even the computer screen has a yellow cast that the un messed with eye sees but bright white with the new one.

Absolutely, it’s actually just powered from a phone charger cable and could easily be modded to run on batteries. I just don’t need it to be mobile for my use.
