The Marvelous Rotating Light Table

Here is a video showing off the unusual drawing table that I use when I make Space Base 8.
I built a wooden frame around a fluorescent light ceiling fixture, topped it with a piece of frosted glass, then topped tat with 1/8″ thick whiteboard with a circle cut out of it. I took a round glass tabletop and set it into the hole in the whiteboard. This gives me a rotating drawing surface that is useful for drawing and painting. To find out why a rotating drawing surface on a light table is useful, watch the video!

A sketch, a sculpture, a photo, whatever! Just as long as you made yourself. If you have a great Ray Gun, Robot, or Rocketship toy you want to share, that would be fun too!
