LED Cube 8x8x8

Step 23 Build the cube: straigthen the pins

In our opinion, a LED cube is a piece of art and should be perfectly symmetrical and straight. If you look at the LEDs in your template from the side, they are probably bent in some direction.

You want all the legs to point straight up, at a 90 degree angle from the template.

While looking at the template from the side, straighten all the legs. Then rotate the template 90 degrees, to view it from the other side, then do the same process.

You now have a perfect layer that is ready to be removed from the template.
