Keep in mind that one end of the rail has a wall and the other doesn't. Always set the insert into the side with the wall and press it into the side without the wall. 6) Measure and cut two lengths of LED strips. 7) Connect the strip with some wires that will fit in the cut out in 'led_corner_rail_end'. Hint: Making the wires small, medium, and large helps with the angle. 8) Set the full LED rail into the base. 9) Wire it to a arduino, this design is for a D1 Mini NodeMcu. 10) Throw some code on the arduino, https://github.com/midorineko/CompleteLEDs/blob/master/corner_leds. 11) Plug it in! 12) The flat wall design is made for command strip installation. Things to fix: 1) Increase gap for wire plug. Only small micro usb cables fit currently. 2) Increase the length of the inserts. 3) Push back inner rail wall for longer inserts. 4) Tighten up the micro computer holding box. 5) Make a top that will keep the top of a very long LED the same distance from the wall as the base. 6) Modify base plate for mounting screws.
