Hey folks! Since this video is taking off a few years down the road, I just wanted to drop a message. Thank you so so much for all your kind words. I'm speechless. This channel has always been something I've done time-permitting and evolved between different subjects. Most of all I'm really passionate about design projects. Interiors, products, anything thoughtful created. So in the next few months, stay tuned for more videos. I'm starting a blog and newsletter on lunationlab.com. I'm moving soon and will have a whole office space ready for projects. Exciting stuff! Talk soon. -Jackson

Quick tip to avoid the splitting of the wood. Drill pilot holes in the wood before using the wood screws. Pilot holes are drilled with drill bits that are typically the diameter of the screw minus the threads. Seems like more steps but it goes quick. And since the base board was mdf you only need the pilot holes in the wood.

@LunationLab 2 года назад

Thanks for the tip! I do have small drill bits I could have done that with. You're totally right.

@nokidding152 3 месяца назад

Came here to say the same thing ... a year late :) also get a countersink bit. I love my countersunk screws. So smooth--significant upgrade in how my projects feel

@hundvd_7 10 дней назад

@NataliaNovak-me5ph 8 дней назад

You're welcome! I believe that putting effort into my outfit and accessories not only reflects my personal style, but also shows respect for those I interact with. Looking put-together is important to me, and I'm glad you noticed.

I'm grateful for your positive feedback on my style. It motivates me to keep exploring and sharing my personal fashion sense. Thank you for your encouragement and support along the way!

@eflizotte 16 дней назад

It’s important to note that as length increases, voltage will drop and the tape will start to progressively dim… it’s a good idea to test first and find that diminishing point so you know where to start a new strip to minimize the effect of the voltage drop. In some applications, with the use of a 2>1 cable, you can split the power and send it to both sides of the strip. This varies based on if you’re using a dimmer ahead of the tape or not

@NataliaNovak-me5ph 8 дней назад

Honestly, inverting this and mounting it in the ceiling I think would look so much cooler. Don’t get me wrong, it does looks cool. But I think mounting this in the ceiling can make it look like a proper built-in recessed lighting

@darkroastsoul 16 дней назад

Amazing video. The dimmer has been the solution to all my problems but unfortunately the link is no longer working and an Amazon search has not returned a working substitute just yet. I found outlet dimmers, but not specifically ones for string lights. Maybe further searching will do. :)

@jordankay8578 8 месяцев назад

We moved out of the hood to a condo and the upstairs bedrooms don't have ceiling lights. You'd think I'd be bummed but id take no ceiling lights over being in our old neighborhood anyway and it gives me the perfect opp to set up a rwnter friendly indirect led lighting

@alexh2665 16 дней назад

I love soft ambient lighting but my issue is its always looked kind of tacky especially when I've tried implementing it. Its great in modern hotels, restaurants or any sort of modern interior hospitality setting but it doesn't seem to fit in with homes

@user-df3kp9nn7b 23 дня назад

Echoing what everyone said already: Nice build, you’ve got a super soothing voice and vibe, clean editing look - definitely checking out more videos and subscribing! // I am curious: How is this to clean, since the baseboard doesn’t sit flush with the wall? Do you just vacuum with an extension behind the board?

if you pre drill the holes for the screws you wont have that problem :)

@adamsterdam9049 22 дня назад

wait, does the baseboard stick out from the wall? Like is there a gap

Yes, sorry if there was any confusion there. I posted some images in the article that better show the gap when against the wall. lunation.cc/m3w

How did you fasten the base board to the wall?

It just uses the corner moulding as a stand, so it just sits up against the wall. Friendly for renters.

@aidenrossiter5408 2 дня назад

Ngl I love this build but the rope wire you used for the 12v side was way over kill that wire is rated for 120 volt not bad but you probably can get cheaper corded wire if you look for a thinner gauge rated for 12v

Do you find that dirt/lint gets trapped within the gap? Would love to see the angle where the gap is visible, to gauge how noticeable it is. 💡

The same logic with indirect lighting here can be applied to projectors over televisions. 75” projection image will always look more pleasing than a 75” tv shining light directly into your face.

@SpGIIFaCeZz 5 дней назад

Be careful with the wiring. Small cables are not made for being run too long of a distance. There is a high risk of an electric fire if you run the thin wire long distances. Extend the high mains voltage instead if you need to run the wire any longer than 5-8 meters. (Or if your pulling a high current to your LED-strip). Be careful out there and don't burn down your home. Better to ask an electrician for help if you're unsure. May save your life or property 👍
