How to build a SD card controled FLEXIBLE LED Display
Here is going to show you how to build a FLEXIBLE "ROLL AND FOLDABLE" LED Display. cheap easy and very useful
TOOLS .:
You donâÂÂt need that much tools and spare parts the most important tools and parts you need are.:
Side cutter (sharp
Screwdrivers mix (cross, slot, big & small
Hot Iron (sharp tip
Solder (thin
Heat gun
shrinkable tubing
Puncher (to hole the Plane
Detergent (cleaning
For first you going to buy, order or just collect all the needed Components for this Project, the most accessories are Optional means theyâÂÂre modified for my project you can change the accessories like color waterproof or none of the led strip, color of the controller, The Surface you can change to different materials or colors.
We offer all the accessories and assembling parts for this project and many other LED projects (TOP PRICE TOP QUALITY incl. WARRANTY so we will assist you for questions and Price inquires.
Step. 1
For first prepare all your assembling parts:
Cut 2cm shrink tube pieces (soldering place
Cut the connection wires or each strip
Cut shrink tube pieces cover it over your wire connection (use the heat gun to make them tight
Cut your Power +red and ground wires you need (for the controller and for the Power supply
Create a LED file in your software we send you by the assembling kit and transfer it to the SD card to proof if everything works well
Step. 2
Calculate the length of the LED strip you have to cut, depend on your requested LED DISPLAY END SIZE !
Remind to include the vertical distance of each string line into your calculation.
Example.
Strip Length , Strip width + your customized distance of each string. Means
if you want to build a 1000mm high display go on like that. 1000 / strip width + distance = how many strip lines you have to cut !
Now youâÂÂre able to cut your calculated numbers of LED strings on your requested length.
Step. 3
After you cut all the strings place it to a flat place which is convenient for you to work on it I prefer a table .
Place the strips flat in position if itâÂÂs easier for you fix each one to the table by tape. !
Use the hot iron to soldering one by one strip donâÂÂt change the wires, we also offer fast connectors to connect the strip without soldering ItâÂÂs just the cheapest way but racially not the fastest.
Soldering the strips in a series circuit means the start of the first strip is every time INPUT, you can start everywhere you want with the INPUT but later in the software you have to change or setup. !
DonâÂÂt forget to cover a short 20mm pcs shrink tube over the strip before you soldering the wire otherwise you have to remove the solder again and cover the shrink tube itâÂÂs easier to cover them before.
Step. 4
After you solder (connect each strip with the other and make a short test give the strips power and try a test with the LED file and its successful, cover the shrinking tube over the solder place and use the Heat gun to make it tightly and secured.
After use the heat gun you should bring the strip lines and the connecting wire in ENDPOSITION hold it by hand till the shrink tube will become cold and tight after some seconds itâÂÂs tight and will not move again stay in position. !
Step. 5
Now you move the strip construct by side, add your Plane surface to the Table, and clean it careful.
Place your LED strip construct to the surface.
BRING IT IN POSITION use the meter stick to fix each distance that the strip construct later Placed well in exactly the middle of your surface.
Now you can fix the first LED strip line peel the paper from the backside of the strip (glue, hold one side to the up and start from the other side to fix it.
Use your meter stick or caliper to recheck if your strip is straight in position..!
IMPORTANT.: If you start to place the first line awry the deviation in the end will be much bigger and later show each awry placements and BIG deviation.
Step. 6
Now you fixed the whole LED construct to the Surface itâÂÂs time to check it again, connect it to power again, if workable we go on like that...
Use the Puncher to place a little hole EXACLY under the start of the LED strip Input, put the input wire through the hole.
Place the SD controller on the backside of the surface by adhesive tape double sided, connect the wires from the input with the SD controller, connect your power supply and youâÂÂre done.
Step. 7
Join, sell, rent, advertise and so onâ¦. There are many ways to get out your invested Money Time and Power of this Project.

I need help deciding how to finish my kitchen. We have replaced old laminate counters with granite and installed new appliances. I am considering painting the oak cabinets a light taupe/beige,ivory to compliment the granite. The oak floor is in bad shape and needs to be replaced. With two dogs, wood is not an option. What is your opinion on a darkish Congoleum slate look grouted tile? I'd like suggestions for a backsplash replacement. Will definitely lose the flourescent lights and install can lights. Should I remove the cabs over the granite peninsula and install a couple of pendants?

A few months back I decided to give my living room a complete makeover, something it has needed since we moved in almost seven years ago. Since we don't have alot of extra money I knew I was going to have to do some serious bargain shopping and that my husband and I were going to have to take on some challenging DIY projects that we were definitely skeptical about, but our minds were made up and we were going through with it, there was no turning back.
Three and a half months later our living room transformation was complete.I aÃÂm pleased to announce that my husband and I successfully installed crown moulding, put up wainscot paneling and built a fireplace overmantle in our living room all for $300.00. In addition, we were able to find all of the furniture and decorative accents to furnish the entire living room for $2,931.
For $3,331 we were able to give our Living Room a Complete Makeover.
