Hey RPF, The following are pics of my 2 Arc Reactors. Below I will describe the process I used to make them.

So the first four pictures are from my first reactor (watch the video here to see how I did it
)

The general process is to buy these three things:
Automotive Interior leds lights from Walmart ( The should come in a set of two strips )
A round chobani yogurt container
A small Halloween lamp from dollarstore '
Hotglue
Pop bottle 2 liter

Process: Watching the video will make it much clearer (I don't have any pics)
First take the Halloween lamp and take off the top part
use the base of the lamp as the backlight
Cut the yogurt cups bottom off
Hotglue the lamp into the yogurt cup
cut the two liter bottles side into a round shape that fits over the end of the yogurt cup
make a design and cut it into cardboard or whatever you want
paint and glue the design to the bottles plastic
Glue the automotive lights into the yogurt cup
Glue the design to the cup


Pics 5-9 are of My second arc reactor:
I don't have a video yet but check my channel soon!

Materials:
A dollar store led push light (pics 8-9)
Chobani yogurt cup
Hot glue

Process:
cut the yogurt container to fit onto the led light
Glue the light in
Make a top from the side of a pop bottle and your own design (mine I made from cardboard)
Paint
Turn the light on
Glue the design and yogurt cup together
Your Done!!
