first off you need some light. Right? then you get a table u'll use as the reference. after that, you now do the easy part which is solidifying the light to the form of the table. After which you have test it with some shadows. if it doesnt break down, you'll have sucessfully built a light table

Very simple to build a light table . and a couple of ways I have taken 1 inch by 4 inch lumber boards here in Canada and a sheet of plywood 24 by 36 inches . Layed the 1by 4 on edge to boarder the sheet of plywood. I then paint the box i have made White. Then you take stand 24 inch fluorecent light tubes with the electrics and screw them to inside the open box. Then you have a piece of White Plexiglass cut for the top . you drill hole in the edges of the 24 by 36 plexi and then drive screws in . One has to think of the on and off switch and I installed one on the outside wiring the light tubes to the switch and the switch have a wall plug to connect with you power. Another way is to find a recessed ceiling light with fluorescent tubes in it . You wire a plug on to the fixture and and replace the eggcrate of frost ceiling fixture shield with a opaque white sheet of 1/4 inch lexan or plexi. Of course it all depends on what is available locally. I have used glass panes on a frame using natural sunlight as a light table Cheeer Pt. |

wham I am a sign maker in Canada and here my idea for a Interum Logo for the Abuja 2018 commonwealth games bid. We now have the largest Facebook Group for the 2018 bid which has more membership then four english cities combined . Check it out http://www.facebook.com/home.php#/group.php?gid=17343847842 We would like to get 10s of thousands on the group as this would show support in overwhelming numbers for hosting the games. I envision a logo contest with 36 runners up and 1 grand prize winner for the Abuja 2018 logo. All entries would be restricted to Nigerian Citizens with a runner up winner from each state. 36 is the number of states in Nigeria and also the number of Support Pillars in Abuja National stadium . A State Commonwealth Games Banner would be hung for each section symbolising unity. Cheeers Paul T |
