    Default Finished up a Litho

    I had carved this litho of my dad awhile back, but wasn't sure on how I wanted to light and frame it.
    I was in a Walmart and spotted these led strips for cars and bought them and went to a radio shack and got a
    12v power adapter. And went to work, the litho is out of 1/2 " corian I got a deal on. The box measures out at 9/ 1/2" x 8" x 2 1/2"

    It's amazing how something will turn out to be greater than you imaged if you simply put it on the
    back burner and wait until the exact thought comes to mind.

    Yeah I had seen led lit lithos and wanted to do that for some time.
    Also my box making skills were ok, and i wanted to do 45 miters.
    Pretty happy on the outcome, Thanks to you all here for your projects

    Great carve on the Lito James.

    What type of lighting did you use on the box?

    Hello Robert,
    I picked up led lighting strips from Wally world in the automotive section and bought a walwart power supply at radio shack
