How to build a 1,024,000 mcd portable light

Step 10Cast the project in resin!

Cast the project in resin!
This is a little bit tricky, so improvise as needed.

Block the section of enclosure off where you will place your switches. Dont drill the holes in until you cast the board in the resin.

Mix your resin and fill the enclosure up until the board is just barely submerged. Make sure to do this on a complely level surface. You cant go back once it's hardened, so make sure your light is working properly and that you like your board placement.
