AnyCubic Vyper Dimmable LED Bar

I wanted to add some more light to my Vyper so I could use it in an enclosure. The built-in LED on the extruder is way too dinky for me to handle. 

I used parts that I had on hand (dimmer is a little expensive for this purpose, but I had originally intended to use it for something else entirely). I also only had a 12V LED strip, and didn't want to buy another one or 24V. That, combined with a LM2596 on hand, I decided to go for it. If you just buy 24V LED strips, this project will be significantly easier. Just uploading for reference if anyone else wants to do something similar.

Parts used:

• Dimmer: https://a.co/d/bgdqqX9
• LM2596 Buck Converter (24V → 12V): https://a.co/d/7yds3Qe 
• LED Strip: https://a.co/d/euBbHF3 
• 2020 T Slots (used for LED mount and converter/dimmer housing): https://a.co/d/hga0oVL 
• Threaded inserts (used for M3 threaded insert in dimmer housing): https://a.co/d/1ac0V4w
• Metric screw set (with tapered heads) https://a.co/d/9dn9U64
