On MakerWorld I saw the this model. Apparently it is based on this project from Adafruit. When you go to the project page, you can purchase the parts you need right from the page.

So, I started clicking add to cart, and then checked out, figuring I would come back after my parts arrived.  :-[



The 60 pixel ring is actually 1/4 of the ring...so, you have to add three more to the cart. I didn't catch onto that until my order finally arrived today and I realized I was missing 3/4 of the ring!  :-\

Let this be a lesson to those who don't verify they have everything they need before starting their project.  ::)

Looking back, it looks like I also needed two (2) of the 24 pixel rings. 🤓

I still need to order the missing parts. Thanks for reminding me.

EDIT: Okay, parts ordered...

I forgot to add that the parts I was missing came in. Now I just need to print the frame and I can start assembling this project.
