first off your are going to create a light box templet so it could go inside your box now u have to search up "stencil" and choose a picture and after u have done that you are going to make a copy of it and your going to trace the picture and make sure that you don't have no mistakes because when the machine cuts out the templet its going to see the little mistakes in there so make sure your have traced it right so your going to open up google draw and your going to use the materials on the top to help u trace the picture and after that you are going to pick a color on what u want your templet to look like.

Second in this picture i am showing on how the electricity flows through each circuit so the energy could get to where it need to be so it could function properly. But there is many ways u could build a circuit so the electricity could travel so your light box could function properly.

Third you need to go to "TINKER CAD" and log in your account after your have logged into your account your are going to start by pulling out a box in your tools and your going to have to make a 120mm X 40mm X 30mm and your walls have to be 1.5mm thick and when you are done doing that u are going to have to get the same box you got from your tools but your going to take the one that will make a hole through your box so u could put in your switch and u make that 20mm X 10mm X 17.72mm. now that is done your going to have to make your lid for the bottom of your box now that one your going to make it 120mm X 40mm X 3mm but every time your going to have to make it smaller then the usual one on every one of them. now you have to make your hole on the side for your wires could fit through there and your going to make that 20mm X 3mm X 3.5mm.
