This video shows how to make a modern DIY LED table lamp or desk lamp from concrete, a 2x4, epoxy resin, and a water pipe. This is a fairly simple DIY woodworking and concrete project with a modern look. To make this modern LED light I cut a channel in a 2x4, and put a PEX tube in it, then poured epoxy over the tube. This created a hollow channel where I could insert an LED strip. The tube and epoxy act as a diffuser for the LED lighting.
