- How to make a wireless DIY rainbow epoxy resin LED lamp that transforms between a sconce, table lamp, and task light. The first 100 people get 50% OFF their first coffee from Trade via this link: bit.ly/trademodmaker Just use the code “modustrial”.
This is a simple DIY woodworking and epoxy resin project. I used a layer of white epoxy resin covered by a layer of clear epoxy resin to diffuse the LED strips. The lamp is made of three pieces that connect with a clever system of magnets and steel washers, that allow you to transform the lamp from a vertical sconce, to a horizontal scone, to a desk lamp or table lamp, to a task light. And since the lamp is battery-powered and rechargeable, it is easy to use in many situations. (The batteries last about 3 hours under normal use.) To top it off, the LED controller I used has a Bluetooth app, that allows the LEDs to be controlled via a Bluetooth connection to your phone.
The lamp base and light bar are made from hardwood maple, and involve fairly simple woodworking skills. The support block was 3D modeled in Fusion 360 and 3D printed using my Anycubic 3D printer.
The LED strips I used were SK6812 RGBWW LEDs. These LED strips are individually controllable neopixels that have RGB LEDs and separate warm white LEDs, so the lamp can do colorful displays and operate in a music syncing mode, or serve as a more refined and sophisticated warm white light source.

This is a great build, practical, classy & within most people's ability. Fantastic job! Many thanks 👍
Thanks for the very kind words Dan!
Круто, просто и со вкусом! Лайк =)
Man, these are cool! Being able to switch it around is super slick!
Thanks Shaun!
Really cool build and great functional design - love the multiple uses! Really great edit on this one too, Mike!
Thanks much Ethan! This was a fun one :)
going back through your old stuff, proud of you bro, congrats on the success!
Simply WOW, well done pal, I'm so glad you are using the intelligent led strips, the possibilities are endless with them babies, and your right about using them for all sorts off things, I have a couple of the little controllers for Bluetooth and Wi-Fi and they are so versatile. This is definitely one of my favourites, awesome job 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks brother! With these expirements, I'm never quite sure how they'll come it, but that keeps it interesting. and this one, well, I'm pretty happy how it ended up 😁
That’s a really cool idea Mike. Your electronics game is on point.
Thanks brother!
Love the design! The epoxy diffuser is such a great idea! I have an idea for a v2.0 for this that uses the magnets and specifically the screws holding them down as power contacts for the leds. Would have to find a driver small enough to tuck into the bar but if you always make the polarity of the magnet match the polarity of the power contacts the bar will always be powered with correct polarity. Since the control lines are all inside the bar you could just mount powered magnets all over the place with the correct spacing. Since 5v or 12v power supplies are so easy to come by you could integrate mounts in all kinds of weird places
Ever did it? I create keyboard on off magnet switch
The style and editing on this video is one of your best. It was just pleasant to watch.
All that being said, STOP DOING THESE COOL PROJECTS!! I don't have enough time in the day to build all of the great ideas you keep giving me!! :) Between you, Glenn over at DIY Creators and Hansi and Martina at NerdForge, my "Projects Wish List" is going nuts.
Love your channel, and I love the inspiration.
Lol, thanks Chris!! I definitely changed up the style a bit on this one for a slower pace, so glad to hear that you enjoyed it!
I know right? I have the same problem.
OMG Saaaaaammmeeee!!!!
@jayque M. Thanks! 😁
@@modustrial you're welcome! Thanks for sharing!
Been following your channel for quite sometime and this is by far is your greatest little project .. nicely done Sir
Thanks Ahmed!
Really cool lamp! One of my favorite parts is how the light bar is repositionable, it makes it versatile and ensures it will remain useful and asthetically pleasing for years to come.
I've seen tons of lights which were very artistic but which were limited in how they could be used, placed, or oriented in a space.
One improvement would be using magnets to connect the power and data to the bar itself, so repositioning or reorienting the light would be as easy as picking it up off the base and reorienting the bar. Though this would have required some more magnet inlays and might have harmed the asthetics of the wood, not to mention added some complication to wiring the LEDs inside the bar as well as tweaking the voltage and current of the power supplied to the magnets to account for any extra resistance provided by the magnets.
If I were to undertake this myself, I'd also make a USB power connector inlay for the wood, either carved to fit flush along the contours of the USB connector or carved to just about perfectly fit the contours of the connector and then filled with puddy, wood glue, or a color matched epoxy resin so that the power connection looks like part of the wood itself. An alternative would be to place the USB connector inside the electronics cavity and make a cord passthrough hole; bonus points for a bisected rectangular prism to fit the chiseled out slot, with two half circles and magnets for easy cord replacement or removal.
Thanks Daniel! Lots of good ideas there!
Fun to watch, good job!
I like how it is modular into so many different things. Good job!
Thanks Bruce! It's the Swiss army knife of lights! :)
Exactly what I needed. Many thanks!!
Great ideas for modern lights/lamps.
Thanks Allan!
all 3 colors look great!
Love the yellow one.
muy buen trabajo, felicitaciones
Gracias
Just wanted to say this video helped with my project. The epoxy method used was able to answer a lot of questions I was having and got rid of my doubts and I proceeded. I did an RGB Thin line flag that covers each color of the thin lines by using a center epoxy strip that is back lit with LED.
Thanks! Glad I could help!
Modustrial Maker well if you want to see it I posted a video how to.
So beautiful, I love the simplistic yet versatile design. Really want to give this a try although our LED's in south africa are rather simple
Thanks Jesse! I think you can get these LEDs there if you've got Amazon. I'll have links up shortly!
Every little thing he does is magic!!!
Ha, thanks much! 🧙♂️🔮
Thanks for the idea. Would love to see more LED projects or designs.
Thanks Eren! I'll likely have some more LED builds later this year 👍👍
Imagine... This lamp as a speaker stand and work as sound visualizer as well..
Wayyy too cool..
So much worth to subscribe..
That would be super cool! 👍👍
@@modustrial surely can't wait you build that one..
ИНТЕРЕСНАЯ ЗАДУМКА
This you could take to the mass production with continuous demands for it. BRILLIANT
Thank you!
How you incorporated your magnets is pretty brilliant! Nice one!
Thanks brother!
I really really like these and how elegant the design is.
Thanks Keith!
Nice light. Thanks for sharing. I definitely think instead of 3d printing that part, I'd say a little black walnut is necessary in this case.👍
Thanks! The support block would look great in walnut.
Thank you my brother For this vidéo.
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it.
Amazing!!!!
I definitely want to try to make one of those. Great build!
Thanks!
Maybe I've been living under a rock, but I've never seen a box wall glue-up like that with the tape and fold method. Very cool!
Ha, thanks! There are a couple videos by others showing the technique. It works great for joints that don't need to hold significant loads
this was so good, exactly what I need for a summer project
Glad to hear you enjoyed it, Jack! If you plan to make it, I'm happy to share the SketchUp file, and STL file for 3D printing. Just shoot me an email to let me know
@@modustrial rad will do!!
Not only the idea is awsome but also the result and the fact You can use it in different ways! You asked what color we like on 8:15, normaaly i would pik white, but this time i like the orange! Great video man!
Thanks man! I'm partial to the orange (and yellow) myself :)
Awesome lights Mike, you pair them well in the wood and they are pretty cool. I need to get some epoxy and start playing around in the shop. Keep on making.
That was awesome dude! looks cool! you are creative.. keep it up!!
excellent project, the quality or your project and video is amazing. i really like how you used the white epoxy to diffuse the light, great idea.
Thank you!
these are so sick, loving all these builds man
Thanks Mike!
you sir, use the word "simple" alot different than i do :D - looks amazing!!! would like to build something similar but I haven't got my own home-depot in the garage :D well done!
Great beautiful stylish lamp, Mike!
Thanks Jolien!
Great project!
Thank you!
Incredible idea, awesome build. Definitely going to build one for myself. Since I don't have all those woodworking possibilities, I'll try a fuily 3D printed attempt.
Thanks! A fully 3D printed variety would be awesome. Tag me on Instagram if you share pics, I'd love to see it!
Another great video about another great creation! Well done!
Thanks Dom!
Using the clear & white mixed epoxy as a diffuser is something I never thought about doing. Anyways, Great video.
Thanks much!
Can you add a link to the tint product you used please
Found it - Sorry!! Great job- love your videos
I would absolutely buy these! Nicely done sir
Thanks Stephen!
truly a beautiful design.
Thanks for the kind words Michel!
What a well done video. I may not try this project but you have a new subscriber. I look forward to see more of your work.
Thanks! Glad to have you here for the fun!
why oh why didn't I go back into your library??? I don't KNOW! now I know! Great well done video.
Awesome!
Thanks!
Good job mate, keep it up
Thanks much!
Lovely
Thank you!
Great Build Mike
Thanks Michael!
Super cool build! Just recently subscribed and I'm enjoying the content a lot
Thanks Ray! Glad to have along for the fun!
U have done it very well man.. 👌 👍
Thanks Muhammad!
Nice design and video. Thanks for sharing! : )
Thanks much!
How come I never came across your channel! 😱 I love it!
Glad you found it now!! Thanks! 😁
Dude the project was cool but the coffee pot is awesome i need it in my life.
Thanks! All the coffee making things were purchased on Amazon, not too expensive either...
Make a pair of speakers with these kind of lights integrated :D
That would be slick! Might just have to do it! ;)
@@modustrial yeah :D
Very nice. The rechargeable battery makes sense for portability. I'm going to try a less portable version that uses a transformer to knock down the voltage.
Thanks Stephen! Let me know if you want the SketchUp file or STL file for 3d printing
I felt like I could smell the coffee when you put the back toward the camera! Cool project!
Thanks Tamar! I'm about to go enjoy the last bit of my Trade now and get to work on the next project 😁
Modustrial Maker I know how that goes! Ha
Them are beautiful I would love to have a bunch of them
thanks Lenny!
Very nice made
Thanks much!
I love the design. Its nice and modern and sleek.
I love your channel, very inspiring.
Would you be able to use the magnets as terminal points for your positive and negative wires from the base to the light bar?
So if you wanted to just take it off the base to turn it off. And to give it a sleeker look in the different orientations.
awesome!!!
Thanks Derek! The patterns on the sp107e look great!
awesomeeee!
Thank you!

This is great. It will be greater if you make a magnetic connector so that it will become truly wireless
I love these. Thinking of making these with a couple of tweaks. I would probably try to get the controller, battery and charger port in the light box instead if the stand so you don't have to mess with the wires. Just make the light box larger or take the plastic housing off the controller. Great project. Thanks for the great videos.
Thanks Brian! I'm curious to see what you come up with. Please tag me on Instagram if you share pics there.
@@modustrial got a few other projects and a couple friends that want me to make stuff for them so it won't be awhile but I'll tag you for sure. Planning to put these in my media/game room. Just found your channel from the Modern Maker Podcast. Love those guys. Looking forward to watching more of your videos. Just recently got into woodworking in October and loving it.
Glad to have you here! The MMP guys are awesome.... They got me into making things too.
@@modustrial thanks. Actually, I've been wanting to get into woodworking for a long time. I finally bought a house with a nice 2 car garage and now I'm dipping my toes into this hobby. My grandpa was a furniture maker in the Philippines I think that's where my interest comes from. Even though I never saw him work, since I live in California, I've always been interested in making and fixing things.
While watching this video I was actually thinking about building one completely 3D printed. I have a really nice woodfill filament.
That would be really cool!!👍👍
super super i love your project , look you ca used all time doble magnet this way you can used those magnet to make DC +/-contact at same time you used for hanging
Thanks! That's a good idea to eliminate the wires that way. 👍👍
Very good..
Thanks!
Besides your project, i like coffee too...
Wow
Seeing you place this on a desk several times made me think you should make a straight up desk/shelving unit for a gaming style PC. It'd look great! Light up keyboard and all. (Just change up the wood to a darker color, or stain it)
Great video as always man!
Thanks! Love the ideas ... I am planning to do a dream desk build at some point here ....
@@modustrial oh and, like I said I changed my pic! Hope you recognized me! 😂 Can't wait to see the desk bro!
Yup, I knew it was you :)
@@modustrial this is why you're one of the best tubers I know.
Aw shucks .... ☺️
Coffe nya enak. I like
"I think we've all been there"
Me, having never made a single thing out of wood: "Yeah, sucks"
Perhaps you will be there at some point ;)
Love this
Thanks!
@@modustrial your video deserve more views
Thanks, I concur whole heartedly! 😎
Voiceover sounds great! ;)
Thanks! I made a blanket tent, used the new mic, and did auto-leveling only.... Didn't mess with the compressor or EQ at all. Sometimes I figure it is best to leave well enough alone :)
This light is crazy.
Thanks Khenzani! 😁
@@modustrial Ur welcome, keep up the great work!!!
In okc i worked for a hardwood floor company. Its called hall hardwood floors. I garuntee you will freak out when yall see the natural seal hickory or maple handscraped floors. They look good asff
Darn it, now I have to learn how to solder too, the list just gets longer.
I love these
Thanks! Soldering is much simpler than it seems at first....think of it like taking a hot glue gun in one hand, and glue stick in the other, and touching the stick of glue to the tip of the gun to melt it. Just like that, except metal instead of glue....
Just picked up a soldering iron on Amazon a month or two ago because I kept seeing Mike and some other channels I follow doing builds like this. I was as surprised at how simple it is to get started. There a a lot of great tutorials on UA-cam.
That's awesome @Chris Crouch ! I learned most of what I know from UA-cam as well.... It's a great community for makers, and learning in general!
I love lamp... says the 100th person in the comments... I see they sent you Dogwood Coffee. One of my favourite Canadian roasteries
Thanks Kris! Yea, Trade seems to pick out some top notch coffee. I'm going to keep using them going forward since it doesn't really cost more than buying at the grocery store
Kool!!
Thanks!
Looks like you faired better than I with soldering wires to the tiny pads on those 144/m density LED strips. I do like the french cleats for easy wall mounting and the light itself. They would go nicely with the small square lights I've recently been playing with and I feel your pain on those warped boards.
The trick is you just have to sacrifice one pixel when cutting them. Instead of cutting the pads in half, cut it off so the whole pads are left next to the pixel you solder to.
That would be the easier solution. I went the option of having a PCB made and we'll see how well that goes once all the parts arrive. My design has a removable light tower in the center of layered wood/plexiglass so the custom PCB made sense, but if you cut from the opposite end of the LED strip, you may not have to sacrifice a pixel. I might just have to try that.
Amazing channel! ;D
thank you!
Best thing you get rid of the twisted lumber lol
Nice
Thanks!
These are RAD! Might be my new favorite build of yours. Well done, and thanks for sharing!
Thanks Michael! Coming from someone with your eye for design that means a lot!
This is great! I love the many ways you can use it. How long are they lasting on a charge?
Thanks! Under normal usage, I'm getting 3 hours or so. There is a lot of space, so it would be pretty simple to use a larger LiPo battery if you need a longer battery life.
Great Project! I love it! You may want to add some date about the battery you used to the description (what voltage and capacity). Also what that USB charger circuit is might be useful.
Thanks Benjamin! Links to the parts are in the video description
Beautiful job, man! 😃
About coffee, I'm from Brazil and I have a espresso machine here in my house... You should try some Brazilian coffee, there are grains even with chocolate flavor in it. Naturally! 😉
I've got an espresso machine too, so I'll have to give some Brazilian beans a shot!
@@modustrial You won't regret. 😉
👌👌👌
Thanks!
Será que ficaria bom no estilo por indução, sem fios? Acharia uma boa ideia. Os encaixes alem de magneticos por indução tipo carregador sem fio para celular....
@GS É isso mesmo, as estações de carregamento por indução estão lá para todos os problemas
Nice project I may do something similar one day, but I think making the magnets transfer the electricity so the need for the cord is gone.
That would be very cool!
I've just discovered your channel. Wow... Subscribed.
How many cameras do you use?! So many angles, zooms, dolly shots. Are the animations done in Sketchup too?
Thanks Hari! I usually just use one camera, but I'll film repetitive tasks from multiple angles, so it will seem like I have more :) I occasionally use a GoPro for a second angle, but I think this video was all shot on my Canon 6d mk II. And yup, I use sketchup with the keyframe animation plugin.
I love the learning I get from your videos, but not fond of the commercials, both those inserted by UA-cam and the one you did as part of the vids. Mike
Man!
Very LED project you make gets me so inspired to dive into an LED project I’ve had on the back burner!
Only prob is, I really need to be able to seal the less under the epoxy for my project. How detrimental do you think the heat will be?
Thanks Jamesdon! If you are using 5V LEDs, it really shouldn't be an issue....they don't get that hot.
is it only me or he does look like Dexter. BTW loved the lamp !
Thanks! And it's just the plastic sheets on the wall that are tricking you ;)
What thickness of white resin did you need for the light to be contiguous, and not see individual leds?
From the look of what was routed after, I’d say about 1/4” (6mm) of white, and then 1/4” (6mm) of clear on top. That will of course depend on how much pigment you add, which will change the opacity.
