So, how does it work?

Just plug it in and use...

It seems to do better when the table or surface under the light tablet is a light color to help diffuse the light. I recommend that the header be made of a 1 x 4 or 1 x 6 to elevate the tablet higher so that the light diffuses better on the angled tablet. I guess you could make a back with a reflective surface as a diffuser but that would turn it into a clunky light box. Also, a little deflector or opaque tape on top of the light source would help to diffuse the hotspot strip of light. The light tablet is actually brighter than the pictures show and is quite useable. And the ambiglow on the sides is pretty cool.

For all of those budding artists out there, go make one and enjoy.
