Happy draft day everyone. Hope y’all are doing well. I’m not around as much as I would like but the wife and I are in the middle of closing on a house(in this economy, I know). I’ll be posting pictures of the man cave when it comes time. But I digress.

I had an idea of a cool Rams accessory that I think would be one of a kind. I want to build a replica oculus turned billard lamp. But I honestly have no idea where to start. I might weld a double sided metal oculus. Then I would just need a circuit board and led monitors to surround it. Any advice from all you tech nerds would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers.

I would start with a home wiring basics book. Main thing with rigging up your own circuit is getting the impedence or ohms right. This prevents thrown breakers and fire hazard from too much current/amps.

LED strips can be bought ready to go. Which means you don't have to get a calculator out. Start with the basic electricity book and from there it is very easy.

Congrats man... the wife and I just closed on a new house yesterday.

I'm going to put a badass pool table in my party palace (calling it that instead of a man cave). I'm gonna get felt on the table with the LA logo. Your oculus lamp sounds very cool though... please keep us updated.

BTW.... I'm getting a stripper pole put in too. No shit LOL. The previous owner's wife was a ballroom dancer and he had a giant room built on for her just for that. There's already a shit ton of wild lights and a fucking mirrored spinning disco ball in there! The stripper pole will look very cool in there next to the bar and pool table. I gotta see this oculus light once you do it... I may have to have one too!!!!

Both the felt AND the lamp sound like a badass idea! Might have to steal your idea for the felt and see how much @Legatron4 will sell me a lamp for once he gets it figured out!
