Description
Introduction
A functional, reasonably faithful, scaled-down recreation of the wall-mounted light fixtures seen at the Anzac, Arden and Parkville Metro Tunnel stations in Melbourne.
Required additional materials
Optional materials for functional lighting
The design uses a 12V LED strip which is glued to the inside of a ~9mm wide, ~1130mm long spiral groove in the LAMP_INSERT part. I purchased this 3m LED Strip from Amazon and cut it to length - it was the shortest length I could find which used a DC barrel connector (rather than USB), and came with a wall plug and dimmer.
I also purchased this 12V DC Power Extension Cable, 3m to place between the LED strip and the wall plug, for additional length.
Note that I had to slightly sand down the casing around the male end of the extension cable, as it needs to fit through the 12mm aluminium rod.
