So, the general idea of this design is that we're going to create some loops, kind of like shoelace loops, that are going to run up inside of this frame and it allows us to then thread an LED strip through the middle of it in a spiral up the middle. Cause the inner and outer shape is sort of tapered and curved it's very difficult to generate a frame any other way with a spiral. But the way we're going to do it with the loops enables the LED strip to do the flexing which it can do, and actually can work quite nice. So, the next thing we're going to do in here is we're going to create a new sketch on the origin which is the YZ plane. Create a new sketch, and I am going to project some of the bits from our inner frame sketches into this one because we're going to need two sketches. We're going to need a path for our little logs to run up, which is already in there. And we're going to…
