Let's be honest -- 2020 has been a bit of a dumpster fire. To commemorate these trying times before the next catastrophe potentially wipes out all of the human race, I decided to make an edge lit LED sign that, while not helping with the ongoing crises, at least makes us feel a little bit better about our current situation by giving it a cute face and some blinking lights!
ECubMaker sent me their TOYDIY 4IN1 machine to help me make this video. This 4-in-1 single and dual extrusion FDM 3D printer, CNC machine, and laser engraver is an awesome desktop tool for makers looking to gain a lot of manufacturing capability in a small space!
