### What is this thing?
This is yet another version of a nanoleaf hexagon. This is a remix with some minor changes.
### Features and Changes
* I added clips to hold the LED strips in place. Most LED strips do not stick very well and with the clips the LEDs stay in place.
* I also created a version that has the center cutout. You can print the outside in black (or any color) and use something white and transparent for the center for a different look.
### LEDs and Control
You can use either 30 or 60 LEDs per meter strips. I recommend that you use individually addressable LEDs and not the RGB strips.
I have tried both 30 and 60 LED per meter strips. The 30 per meter work perfectly. The 60 LED per meter strips are very bright but there are some neat looks you can get from them, just lower the brightness.
In the end I ended up just using WLED for control but still want to create something custom for more interesting effects.
