Solar System Lamp ... CNC Machine G-code Simulation using Fusion360.
Solar System Lamp Engraving | Working on new Project using my Latest fully upgraded CNC Machine.

Here I am providing files.

1. Solar System Image

2. SVG Image

3. DFX Image

4. G-code

Note 1: Engrave on the side where you have painted the sheet. Don't remove the protection film on other side until you completes all things.

Note 2: If you know how to edit G-code then only use it otherwise not.

Solder LEDs As Shown in the Figure

Note 1: Please check working voltage of your LEDs and it must be diffused LEDs. Here I am using White and Blue LEDs which works on 3 volts and Red LEDs which works on 2 volts.

1. Connect LEDs as show in figure.

2. White LEDs are in series and Parallel with other LEDs.

3. Blue LEDs are in series and Parallel with other LEDs.

4. Red LEDs are in series with 2.7k ohm resistor and Parallel with other LEDs.

Note 2: Alternate the LEDs as shown in Image ...

Blue=B and White=W.

Use this config for LEDs B-W-B-W-B-W

Test Your LEDs
