Moodlight built by Dad and myself with arduino uno , nano, lcd for date and temp and time, running fastled 3.1 and cylon (larson scanner) code…
A lot of time spent building the moodlight , but turned out beautiful in the end.

Very nice.
Any build photos you can share of how you made the tower?
@marmil I will post a couple of pics as soon as I can, I basically used an arduino uno with a developer shield with an arduino nano stacked on top of that just for power supply reasons, and mainly because I wanted to keep the time code separate from the animations. I used acrylic squares and a wooden base for the build.
The acrylic squares give a very nice look. How did you secure them?
Also, is the LED strip directly against the acrylic or is there anything in between the LED strip and acrylic?
@marmil I cut slots out of the wooden upright and drilled holes for the leds in each slot, finally I used clear silicone glass sealer to secure them in the slots. 
Very nice. Thanks for the info.
