Step 11Other ideas
the construction method for the lighting was quick-n-dirty, and it made a big mess of the frame which looked a lot nicer before all the wires and glue were stuck on. just doing the wiring neater would help, and making it all one color wires would look better i think, and keeping the glue much more contained.
on a different one of these frames i saw, the plastic edges were all polished mirror-smooth (just like they do on eyeglass lenses sometimes), this is not too hard with a power polishing wheel and looks nice.
it would be great to have a more sophisticated lighting effect, but that would require a lot more wires to get individual control of the leds. the leds i used were from about 2001, new power led's would be a lot brighter and require a lot fewer leds and less wiring.
