Make a Dimmer Lamp from the Electric Paint Lamp Kit
Whether you just completed the Electric Paint Lamp Kit Instruction Test Sheet or you want some visual reinforcement when making your Touch Lamp, this tutorial provides step-by-step videos to guide you in making the Dimmer Lamp. All you need is the Light Up Board, an Electric Paint 10mL Tube, and the Dimmer Lamp template and lampshade.
We recommend going through the Instruction Sheet first as it provides a tutorial to ensure that you are confident in applying Electric Paint and attaching the Light Up Board before you get started with the template.
Step 1: Apply Electric Paint
First, apply Electric Paint inside the grey outlines to fill in switches. The paint takes approximately 15 minutes to dry and must be completely dry before we attach the Light Up Board. In the meantime, we can start making the lampshade while we wait for the paint to dry. Just skip to Step 5 and come back later.
Step 2: Attach the Light Up Board
Once the paint has fully dried and isn't tacky anymore, it's time to attach the Light Up Board. Use the Twisting Skills that you have learned from the Instruction Test Sheet!
Step 3: Cold Solder
With the board in place, we can now cold solder. Blob a droplet of Electric Paint inside each sensor. This will ensure a robust connection between your paint and board. After you have applied the Electric Paint, we need to wait for the paint to dry for another 15 minutes.
Step 4: Test
When everything has dried, we should test it!. It is important not to touch the sensors when powering up the board. So when connecting the Light Up Board to a power source, it's easier to connect the USB cable to the Light Up Board first and then the power source.
Try touching one of the switches. The board should light up! Try touching the switches in a circular motion, the board should get brighter with each step. IF each switch works you can disconnect the cable from the board for now. If it does not work, check to see if the painted areas have cracks in them, if they do apply some more Electric Paint to patch it up.
Step 5: Fold the lampshade
Now it is time for the lampshade! If you look at the lampshade. you can see that it has two types of dashed lines on it. You need to either make a "mountain fold" or "valley folds" for each of these, depending on the type of line. Take a look at the video to see how it is done.
Step 6: Attach the lampshade
There are two tabs on the lampshade. These are used to attach the lampshade onto the template sheet with the Light Up Board. Simply slide the tabs into each of the corresponding slits one at a time.
Step 7: Turn the Dimmer Lamp on
You can now connect the USB cable to the Light Up Board again. Power up the board and touch the switches in a rotary motion. Your lamp should light up and be able to dim or brighten as you pass over each switch. Congratulations we have made a Dimmer Lamp! You can now hang it anywhere we want to have a light source.
