Description
This is a lithophane light box that I designed in order to use flexible LED strip lights as the lighting source. The inside of the box has channels for routing the lights to get even back lighting on your lithophane. I add a few drops of super glue in addition to the adhesive tape on the lights to make sure they stay in place over time.
The cord relief is a press fit into the back and helps prevent the lights getting stressed if the cord is pulled on. The lithophane fits into the frame tightly as there are 2 small bumps at the bottom to hold it in place.
