LED Star Beam Clock

Step 6Switch for the LEDs

Switch for the LEDs

Since the clock will always be on, and the LEDs should not always be on, I added a rocker switch to the bottom of the clock that turns off the AC to the PSU.

- Place some masking tape in the spot the switch is going to go.

- Mark the outer dimension of the switch.

- Use a hacksaw or rotary tool to carefully cut out the switch.

The switch I used is pressure fitted, so it will hold itself in place as long as the hole is the correct size.
