It’s a replica of the Kanai Cube from Diablo 3. I have been playing a lot of Diablo 4 and kind of wanted a desk reminder of my enjoyment of the game.
The basics are from the Maker case Generator and I mapped out the kanai design in inkscape. The screens are rice paper and I made a tiny circuit board on CNC to power the LEDs.
It gets cut out with a 1mm bit, cleaned up with a scotch bright pad and soldered with lights, resisters and a USB connector (I ignore the data pins since I just want power).
Do you mean to take the LED and switches out of them? I have several packs of that type of candle that I bought a couple years ago at Hobby Lobby that are just sitting there, still in their packages. It would be nice to be able to use them in other things like book nooks, etc., without the candle design.
I was afraid of that. I went all over Amazon and a few other places and did not find anything that nice and useful. I am pretty useless doing my own electronics but I really like the lamps. I have 12 of them in the catalog but the lights that you don’t wear out the battery I like best.
i would start by just using a handful of them as is. figure out how to secure without giving up the ability to change batteries. keep one face of the cube so that it opens to allow battery changes.
This could be done on stripboard pretty easily. Shogun’s custom PCB is cool but not 100% necessary. If you can solder you could pull this off without a custom board.
