Another Infinite Table

Seen many times on this site, but so simple and beautiful ...

• sheets of wood, thickness 10mm
• round mirror, diameter 42cm
• one-way film mirror
• a round glass top, diameter 47 cm
• adhesive bumpers
• table legs, 40 cm

• led strip (adafruit) https://www.adafruit.com/products/1460
• arduino uno (adafruit) https://www.adafruit.com/products/50
• a USB cable and a 5V phone charger to power the arduino

• neoprene glue
• glue gun
• screws
• electric wires
• casual tools

The 3D design is available here :

I used a CNC router, but i can be done with casual tools

1. cut a 47cm diameter plain wood round
2. cut 2 circles, 47 cm outer diameter and 42 cm inner (refer to the 3D design)

That's it ;-)

1. Paste the 2 circles on the plain round plate, I used neoprene glue
2. Paste the mirror inside (neoprene glue)
3. Paste the led strip around (glue gun for the led strip)

1. Make a small hole on the side of the table to let pass electric wires from the led strip
2. Fix the arduino UNO under the table. I've used a 3D printed mount (https://www.tinkercad.com/things/6GCFMztirR3-arduino-uno-r2-mount). But you can also fix with a glue gun.
3. For wire connections between led strip and arduino, please refer the adafruit site. It's well done and clear.

-> you will find there explanations for the led strip, how to use it, and examples for arduino

-> I didn't use the recommended capacitor

-> I power the led strip from the arduino, and not an auxiliary transformer

-> the arduino is powered with an USB cable and a +5V phone charger, it is enough

So to resume : I only need an arduino UNO, a USB cable, a phone charger and the led strip

- Do you really need an explanation to do this ? lol

This is the most expansive part of the table

- I've ordered it from a factory and it costs, arround 110 euros for a "securit" glass and 40 euros for a standard glass

- Fix the one-way mirror on it, it is tricky, not easy, follow the instructions of the box and be patient

- Fix adhesive bumpers and place the glass top on it

That's it, your table is ready to impress your friends :-) :-) :-)
