Manufacturing

The main blocks and base will be laser cut from translucent acrylic and fit together like puzzle boxes at the edges. We will have to CAD files for each individual block since they are all different shapes.

For the electrical connection, we are thinking of using small (1/8") cylinder stock aluminum. We will drill holes in the stock that mate with aluminum pegs (maybe turned on a lathe or shaved down in another manner) to connect the circuit.

We will order a big plastic switch to attach to the top block to make it easy for the child to switch on and off the circuit.

We will order LED strips in coordinating colors to the acrylic to add to the circuit.

We may also use the laser cutter for cutting adhesive vinyl for decorations on the sides of the shapes, such as numbers and color names.
