A self-made Schwippbogen. In the end, only the selection of the right parts was decisive. Frosted 5mm LEDs, brass tubes with 5mm inner diameter and a beautiful piece of wood with interesting grain. Zack, done. Well, some electronics, many cables, shrink tubing, drilling, milling, soldering, painting, oiling and gluing hot glue are also needed. But […]

Learning tower for our kitchen
