Step 1 Start Printing

Print the following:
1x TopLeftNode.stl
1x TopRightNode.stl
3x TopCenterNode.stl
20x RegularNode.stl
I used carbon fiber PLA. Nail that first layer - it's what people will see.
The Top nodes must be printed with supports everywhere. The Regular nodes do not need supports.

Step 2 Prep for Segments

Cut 40 segments of LED strips, 14 LED's long.

Don't cut off too much of the pads on the ends! We need to solder to it!

Cut 40 segments of aluminum extrusion, 25cm each. Deburr the ends so they don't cut into the strips!

Cut 40 segments of aluminum extrusion, 25cm each. Deburr the ends so they don't cut into the strips!
Cut 40 segments of diffuser plastic, 23cm each.
The diffusers should be shorter than the aluminum, or they'll be difficult to snap onto the extrusion after the system is assembled.
