tmntarcade is a Reddit user that is making waves with a unique UFO lamp that he made. He even posted his story and how me made it so others could be inspired as well. Let's walk through the process.

2

He started off with a retro UFO model kit.

3

"Top of the saucer. Glued with epoxy then coated with tape."

4

The next step was lights. "LED remote tape and glue, these are the things that make my world go round."

5

"Lights installed, although adhesive I decided to sure up with some extra glue."

6

Gluing on portholes for the lights was next.

7

"Glued the top to the bottom and used tape to hold down while the epoxy cured. I turned it on so the heat would speed up the process."

8

"Testing the lights Ooooo creepy."

9

This was the finishing result. He used a Walmart plastic cup to achieve the tractor beam look.
