Ok that is sweet. Doing that would save some space.

Really nicely done! I appreciate both the video itself as well as the crystal casting. Love the idea of casting the rgb led right into the crystal. I tried to drill a piece of calcite to get similar results a while back but couldn't get the crystal to stay together. This is definitely the way to go to get an integrated led.

Thanks guys!

Glad you enjoyed it. I had about an hour and a half of footage of me talking through the whole thing! I couldn't even bear to sit through it all, so I just decided to cut a whole bunch, time lapse what was left and do the voice over. Watching the edit while doing the voice over made it much easier to be more concise with my dialog. I think it worked out much better that way.

Pretty slick. As stated above I really appreciate you took the time to record a video showing the process.

Way cool bro Thanks for making the video....you can make a home version of a vacuum chamber...its a little cheaper...lol. I made one but i left it back in FL with all my other tools.

(still haven't found the things i made with the Amazing Clear Cast those years ago.....fudge)
