I built a thing today!

So I recently saw a long finished Kickstarter campaign video for this thing called the Hypercube. Problem is, they want $400 for the 15" version. So I decided to build my own.

 

The led strips cost me $54, the plexiglass cost me $70, the one way mirror film was $8, and there was about $9 worth of cedar lumber. I'm sure the commercial version has far fancier software running it, but for $250 less, I think mine turned out great!
