A piece I'm proud of.
Backlit pieces mounted on posts set in the brick. A lot of work, from beginning to end, but worth it. They love it. This was taken on an overcast afternoon. The thing almost blinds you at night.

I did. I routed out the grout between the bricks to run the wire which isn't very big because it's all run from LED.
I could have drove straight through the brick back into the room behind to run the wire except if that's a conference room and I couldn't screw up the wall
There's a 12 volt power supply in a box that you can't see because I cropped it out of the picture.
@Metahuman Cool, I was hoping there was a Tesla Coil involved.
Yep. Love tesla.
Actually, if you zoom in and look close enough you can see some wires if you follow the mortar lines. This picture was taken before covering the wires with sealant.
@Metahuman Great work, I am a woodworker and wonder how things are done. Thanks for all the info.
@dalefvictor actually there is one part of the project that I didn't do myself. I sent the design off to a friend of mine to cut the sheeting with his CNC router
I did everything else.
@Metahuman One has and gets to use their resources.
