Come build your own Fibre Optic Lamp!
After our Raumati Pop Up STEM Workshop, weโre heading over to Masterton for the next stop in our growing series of regional MakeRoom workshops.
This awesome project harnesses the power of Fibre Optic cable to create an amazing array of light effects. Slightly different from the cable you'd have bringing internet to your house this variant has 'side glow' so not all the light from the multicolour LEDs in the base is bounced down to the end of each length. Pressing the onboard button cycles through the 12 different effects as well as turning the unit on and off. There is also a dial that controls overall brightness - because in a dark room this thing is quite bright!
WHERE: Wairarapa College Library
83 Pownall St, Masterton
WHEN: Sunday 21st June, 9amโ3.30pm
Open to young makers aged 10โ15. $135 for the day.
A full day of practical STEM, creativity, and glowing maker fun.
