Ver 2.2 - ARC Reactor

Ok... been working on my ARC Reactor a bit more.

The LEDs are POWER TOP SMD SMT PLCC-2 1210 3528's

• The board was designed similar to the one that Honus designed.

• I used a silver pen to trace out the circuit lines and voila... a crapload of light with no Paladium poisoning!!!

My good buddy Zabana gave me a spare plexiglass ring which I doubled up my copper wire windings. Unfortunately there is a small size discrepancy between the ring and the LED placement as I had already built it before the ring came in the mail. I can live with that. :-p

• All of the 20 spokes/forks were hand fabricated from 22 gauge steel fitted onto an aluminum center ring

• The upper bridge wirings are actually soldered copper

• The larger central ring is aluminum with the slots all hand punched and cut

• The Tri-arm linking the center piece to the above-mentioned central ring had to be made from steel as aluminum does not take well to complex bending

There are a few more processes left before it is complete, but it is a nice solid piece that I won't be ashamed to wear at a Con.
