Synas LED light box

Yesterday my wife sent me a link to this newish IKEA LED light box. Called "Synas" it is a 24cm cube with 5 clear sides, and one that is a LED panel.  A bit pricey at $30 US, but it could make a nice miniature display case for either that special unit, or for people with out the room for a big display case.  It would particularly interesting to make use of the LED light coming up from below for a miniature diorama, possibly with light filtering up through a chemical pond or similar...

I'm actually thinking the size and price is about right for something I was looking for. I need to use the camera on my tablet as my "scanner", but holding it steady and level is a problem, and getting enough light on the paper without it being uneven or without casting a shadow with the tablet is difficult to impossible. This would fix that!

Well there is an "out of the box" idea for this!

Let us know how you get on.
