that would be an excellent series. I love seeing something in the store or on pinterest and making it better and higher quality and much cheaper. Like hardwood modern furniture for example. Some furniture pieces that would cost thousands because they are OOAK or handmade pieces, can be made for hundreds.

I love the aestetics of your lamp. Since these lamps are more for decoration and background lighting, the intense white light is bad. I am also very fond of wood, and the white finish of the bought lamp makes it look like it might as well have been made of plastic (and not the fancy kind). Seeing the wood grain in that coloured light was beautiful.

Several things to make it match more similarly: Light to be stronger / have more lumens or watts, you could even wrap the LED back to back to make it a longer strip so the light projects more intensely. Lighter wood reflects light better, so it also appears brighter

“This is less expensive than this” yeah well....

I think that yours would have looked better if the wood had been less grainy like maple or pine.

Thats how they make money to bring us this awesome content :(. I don't like ads either, but E&K at least make them none intrusive and they feel like part of the video.

I think painting the inside white would have made you feel better about the LEDs not being as bright or as “warm” as you wanted. And it could’ve made the rainbow more vibrant

I think one of those diffusing sheets of plastic could add a lot to your diy lamp, it would make the light softer and more evenly spread. Plus if you put on over the top too you can hide the sight of the led strips inside.

Tip, with the angle for the table saw you can put a thin piece of wood in for the channel and then screw another piece on top of that at the angle you need. It'll only be for that one angle but it will work for what you need.

The most important factor to consider on things like this is that you can make it EXACTLY like you want it. Consider how much the person you are buying it from would charge is you could customize it. That is when the prices REALLY go up.

I think there are a few series out there by that name (one on HGTV too) so we thought we'd try "vs" instead of "or" but we're open to changing it!

Love this!!! Yes more Buy vs DIY videos please! I agree that having the workshop set up and easy to use (unlike my hot mess of tools and supplies) cuts down on the hours - I love seeing some real life DIY time estimates though! That can be so hard to predict
@EvanAndKatelyn
@EvanAndKatelyn 4 года назад
Hmm probably took a few hours of active time? It's hard for us to measure too because we're also filming, which makes everything take a lot longer 😅

For making LEDS (with a silicone top layer) you can either paint on a light layer of either a white paint or a white glue that drys white. The white layer of white will disperse the light coming out of the LED to flatten out the lighting.
@EvanAndKatelyn
@EvanAndKatelyn 4 года назад
Thanks for the tip!
@dbgreyson
@dbgreyson 4 года назад
You could have either painted or applied a layer of white material inside of the DIY version to make the light brighter and emulate the look of the lighter wood.

The little one would be great for a night stand as it gives off good light and won't take up a lot of space. While the big one would be awesome for a living room or gaming room to create some mood lighting and a chill vibe.
