A rain forest inspired wooden marble run I made
This is a marble run I designed/made that has laser cut 3mm ply as the main body of the marble run, and a super cool oak wooden frame with built in dimmable LED strip.
I made heavy use of living hinges (a laser cutting technique that makes the wood flexible) in the marble run, and for the LED reactive section in the top right there's a 0.5mm piece of wood acting as a diffuser.
I made this as a commission for a client from Australia so I wanted it to have the feel of a walk through a tropical rainforest. There's even scented eucalyptus oil in the humidifier for the full rain forest effect! The background is made from preserved moss, and whilst it was quite a laborious to install, the aesthetic was worthwhile I think. Any questions let me know, and hope you like it!
