I have YouTube channel as well, for my channel I decided to make showpiece containing the name of channel. I wanted to place that showpiece on my table while recording the video for my channel. Hence, I came up with an idea to use 3D printing, laser engraving and some electronics items to make this showpiece. In this article, I am explaining the complete fabrication process for making that showpiece. Part and Components used In this project, following components has been used: PLA Filament (For 3D Printing) Acrylic sheet with engraved channel name LED Strip 5mm DC Jack 12V DC Power source Glue to assemble the 3D printed parts Soldering iron Computer to design the housing/casing The complete methodology to complete this project contains - laser engraving, designing, 3D printing, assembling, LED strip installation. Now, I am going to explain each of these steps. Laser Engraving I choose a 150mmX30mmX5mm acrylic sheet strip to engrave the name of my website/ Youtube chan...
