8x8x8 LED Cube Kit DIY Electronic Kit Soldering Project Kit, User Needs to Solder The LED, and The Displayed Content Can Be Modified [3D8C-MULTI]

The kit took a little more time to assemble than I was planning on but the end result is fantastic! It comes with many more LEDs than you need to assemble, way more. The instructions are straight forward & easy to understand. The soldering is simple & macroscopic. Easy even with poor eyesight. The preprogrammed displays are great, but the real fun is coming up with your own creative ideas. I thought the price was a little high but the components and the circuit board are high quality and the project was well thought out. In the end, you get what you pay for. If your into this sort of thing, You can't go wrong with this kit!

I love this thing but let me start off by saying, this is a project it is not something that you will just easily assemble really quick. You need to plan ahead and you need to set some time apart to put it together. If you're just starting to learn how to solder, this would not be my first suggestion. It looks really cool but you might want to wait and make this a later project. It's definitely fun after you get the hang of what you're doing and it's definitely bright and very visually exciting. But if you don't know what you're doing you can easily get frustrated and then you take a quality package and waste it. So if you're just getting into soldering I definitely suggest you work your way up to doing a cube. But if you're into soldering and you want to do it like you this is the one it's a lot of fun to play with.

Haven't finished, takes about 8 hours to get half way through, took so long to get to that half way mark I got lead poisoning. So be careful with the soldering and do it in a well ventilated area. I will edit this once I finish it.

Don't expect to get any help putting this kit together. I was not able to reach anyone to get technical help on assembling this kit. There is one sheet of instructions included but photos are not large enough to see how leads need to be bent and where to best solder. The instructions claim that there is a google drive with instructions and videos but there is no link to such repository. There is an email address but I got no response writing to them. There are videos of other people assembling similar kits from different brands on YouTube that can be helpful. but nothing from this manufacturer. the holes in the main board are meant to hold the LEDs in place while you solder them. However, since they are round, they move around in the hole which makes soldering them more challenging than some other brands with rectangular LEDs. because of these issues I would not recommend this for someone with no previous electronic and soldering experience.

Man benötigt auf jeden Fall gute Löterfahrung und Zeit. Dieser hier hat mich bestimmt 16 Stunden oder noch mehr gekostet. Wenn man ein anderes Konzept für die Verdrahtung der LED's nimmt, dann kommt auch was Ansehliches heraus. Ich habe mir 0,8mm dicken Silberdraht besorgt. Diesen dann mittels Akkuschrauber und Schraubstock gerade gezogen und auf 18cm lange Drähte geschnitten. Danach die LED's an die Drähte gelötet und so die einzelnen Lagen gebildet. Die Programmierung mittels des mitgelieferten Programmers funktioniert ebenfalls tadellos.

Cube in etwa 8 Stunde komplett zusammen gebaut ein paar Stellen in der Anleitung waren nicht so gut zu verstehen aber trozdem gut geklappt. Anleitung nur auf english Software hab ich leider nicht gefunden kann also nur die Standard Funktion nutzen
