Recycled CD lamp

Ever wondered what to do with old CDs and DVDs? Here comes the solution: turn them into a decorative lamp!

You will need
* experience in building electrical equipment and knowledge to work with devices connected to mains voltage
* soldering skills
* 24 white LEDs with 5mm diameter
* a _constant current_ power supply matching the power needs of the LEDs. In the given configuration, eight LEDs are connected in parallel, consuming around 150mA. Three of those eight-LED-strings will be connected in series, requiring around 8-9V. The design provides space for a power supply whose dimensions are 28x11x15mm. Try googling for [5W AC85-277V 150mA DC9-34V](https://www.google.com/search?q=5W+AC85-277V+150mA+DC9-34V). You should be able to find something on aliexpress labeled "3-10*0.5W/150mA Candle Light Driver". I got mine on ebay.de however. Do not choose a version with more than 150mA, otherwise the LEDs will be overloaded (you may of course adapt the design to allow for more LEDs - it
