Test and final demonstrations of lens mechanism. Thankfully, the lens assembly was driven by one very small motor, and I was able to re-solder the leads and repurpose it for this piece. LED inserts were panel lights purchased from McMasterCarr, center dial also purchased from McMaster. Motor control ended up being a little sub optimal- turning on and off the motor as you can see is extremely manual. Someday I’ll design something to sense the current the motor draws to stop it when it stalls.

Nightstand
Ottoman. Sugar pine, red velour. Custom upholstery, piping, frame, and cabriole legs. In defense of the pine, it was a class project. I promise I'll stop.
