How to Make a Dandelion Lamp Using LEDs

How to Make a Dandelion Lamp Using LEDs, Optical Fibers, and Straws

Albert Einstein once said, "We know less than one thousandth of one percent of what nature has to reveal to us."

While this still lies true, that fraction has inspired man since the beginning of human life. You can see the reflection of nature in the poems we read, the theatre we watch, and the music we hear. Not only that, but nature plays a significant role when it comes to invention turtle inspired tanks, whale inspired submarines,
discount ray bans water strider inspired water skis, and sticky seedpod inspired Velcro, and bird inspired jets. Phillips, who was just 21 years old when he lost his lower leg in an accident in 1976, was inspired by the cheetah for his invention. Cheetahs have very long tendons and ligaments that attach their muscles to their skeletons. In part, they act like giant, heavy duty elastic bands that can take quite a beating while propelling the animal at fast velocities. In 1981, the first flex foot prosthetic was built from this inspiration.

And now, it’s 2013 and we’re still being inspired by nature.

This newest invention isn’t much of a game changer, but more of an homage to all past inspirations. Instructables user blissful2015 designed a simple ambient lamp, mimicking the look of a dandelion seed head.

First, she modeled the structure that holds all the straws after a peeled orange (more nature FTW!). She cut the straws from one side in order to attach them snugly onto the cardboard center structure. It should be great for anyone trying to break into the LED creations world.

This video is about an optical illusion of a straw going through a safety pin. It is a simple illusion that any one can do. First, you need a safety pin, a toothpick and a straw. Cut the straw to the size of the toothpick, and using the safety pin, pierce straw and the toothpick from the middle. Then close the pin. Then all you got to do is to hold the straw to the safety pin and release it. The straw will rotate almost 180 degrees creating
replica ray bans the illusion of going through the safety pin to the other side.

Everybody loves the stars. Well, I
cheap ray bans certainly do. As a child I spend hours outside during summer nights marveling at the seemingly endless amount of sparkling dots spanning the sky. Maybe you have children of your own and want to create a sparkle in their eyes, or in your own. This tutorial will provide a basic method of bringing the stars inside at least, in part.

This project is very simple. All you need is:

Loose fiber optics (available on eBay or Amazon, see Fig. 1)A 5V power supply

Fig. 1 Fiber optics cable.

A few tools are needed:

Watch this video tutorial from the Polish Guy to see how to polish and restore a brass lamp font with Simichrome Polish. In this demonstration tutorial we use Simichrome to polish a piece of brass. The tutorial includes a detailed work instructions and best practices.

1. Apply a dime size spot of Simichrome to the finger tip of your nitrile glove.

The gloves will keep your hands clean as well as apply the polish easily into the intricate pattern of the lamp font. By
cheap ray ban outlet applying polish this way you do not waste as much as you would by using a cloth. The cloth will soak up some.

You must have seen some expensive mp3 players and CD players which have LEDs fixed on them and they dance to the tune looking really pretty.

Imagine you could make your own LEDs and configure them to dance to Daft Punk or Swedish House Mafia. I’m going to tell you how it can be done at your home and with a lot less money. You just need a few components and a little bit of concentration before we can get the party started!

Step 1: Get Your Components and Equipment

There are a few things you may need to start with. Some, you might find in your home; others are easily and cheaply available at.

Last week, we wrote about Antonin Fourneau Water Light Graffiti exhibit in that used LEDs to create a huge Buddha Board that would light up anywhere water touched it.Articles Connexes：
