The LEDs are a good idea, you can shape them as needed. Hopefully you can figure a good way to place the dimmer and power supply.
Bubbly! You are right! Great observation, Splinter. I've been working out how to build the base to hold the hide those components. I hope to start on that tomorrow.
I like how this design combines “old modern” (outside) with new modern (inside).
What do you mean by, “I COB LEDs…” in the intro? Is that in unexpected autocorrect result, or am I out of touch with the latest acronyms?
Thanks, Ron. Sorry for the grammar and undefined acronym. I definitely should have done a better job proofing the post. Thanks, Splinter, for cleaning-up after me. 😆
I thought it was worth departing from the old lighting components since the LED strips won't be visible unless you lean over the top to see them. I think that the more uniform lighting will be an improvement.
