It took over a year of getting all the parts together and is back lit my nanoleaf panels (hence the lines and gaps at the edge). A worthy trade off for the fun effects!

Have you heard about my lord and savior WLED? You could build an extremely powerful backlight system with no seams.

    The nanoleaf was mostly because I had them in a cupboard and thought this would be a fun use, but I already have designed on a V2 with better lighting and accurate static borders

    At meetings, do you keep fiddling with it?

    And when presenting something, do you pretend to read from it?

    Yes.

    The great thing about the acrylic top layer is that if I want too, I can use whiteboard markers

    I always wondered who cleans all the marker "art"/graffiti from those panels on Voyager.

    "It would appear that someone drew what is commonly referred to as 'cock & balls' style of art on my long-range scanner console, again, perhaps in an attempt to achieve humour. I shall review the security logs and crew medical data to find whoever did this."

    "Acknowledged. And find out where are they getting whiteboard markets, it might be some unknown alien technology."
