LET's Make the Cube
make a rough layout in cardboard or wood
drill 5 mm holes using 5 mm drill bit(here i am showing 5*5*5 JIG)
Prepare the LED's
before soldering test all led's with multimeter
use pliers and make a 90° bend in cathode (- ve)
and again bend 90° (see the pictures)
keep repeating this until all of your 64 LED's are prepared
insert 16 led's in jig and solder all anodes together
each layer consists 16 led's with a common anode(+)
make 4 layers like this
now solder cathodes together(first coloumns cathode solder to the first coloumn cathode of second layer )
finally we get 4 anode layers and 16 cathode coloumns
