Carl’s newest wonder: a tiny sparkleball nested inside a larger. The photo is a wow-y composite shot of two sparkleballs. The mini dosage cup ball is placed inside a partially constructed hard cup Chinet sparkleball.
Make-a-Sparkleball
the amazing ball of light
There are only 44 of the Chinet hard cups in the outer ball. The two ends are 7 cups in hexagonal packing with 6 5-cup ribs connecting them. I glued and taped 5 of the ribs in permanently. The sixth rib was held in place with tape while I put in two strings of 60 LEDs. It was then moved sideways and the dose ball was inserted. Then I glued and taped it in permanently.
It’s not a composite of two different photos, it’s one photo of two different sparkleballs lined up perfectly.
