Thread search: LED through laminate
SavannahLion:
One of the forum members experimented (installed?) an LED (I want to say it was a 7-segment LED display but I could be wrong) behind laminate. If the LED was off, it wasn't visible. Turn the LED on and the laminate was thin enough to allow the light through.
I was almost positive it was somunny's ARK Project but nothing in the thread mentions this. In retrospect it would make sense, somunny is using metal foil.
I'm about 95% certain it was a table top cocktail type cabinet but I just can't find it.
Does anyone remember who did this and what project they did it on?
edit: corrected terminology.
yotsuya:
It was a project that used oak verneer, if I'm not mistaken.

Maybe it was one of those ginormous "dining table" cabs? I'll have to hunt through them and see if it turns up there.
PL1:
Are you thinking about EightBySix's Insert Coffee build?
He sanded the veneer down as thin as he dared to get the LEDs to show through.
