This picture is a good illustration that -at least for me- the 8mm DIY scanner is a journey.  
From top to bottom:

- The first light with LED strips arranged

- Same for the second with better box and better diffuser

- First sphere trials using an oversized ping pong ball and LED strips

- Second sphere trials with smd LEDs.

- And lastly, the PCB to assemble the new light/sphere.
