-\end{itemize}
-
-With these two major components complete, assembly of the WPR is relatively straight-forward.
-Details of final assembly are described in \autoref{SEC:assembly}.
-

\section{Fabrication}
-\subsection{Photon Source} \label{SEC:photon-source}
+WPP devices are simple to fabricate.
+The fabrication process is divided into three parts:
+
+\begin{itemize}
+ \item Base fabrication, described in \autoref{SEC:base}
+ \item Reaction module fabrication, described in \autoref{SEC:enclosure}
+ \item Reactor driver electronics fabrication, described in \autoref{SEC:electronics}
+\end{itemize}
+
+With these components complete, final assembly of WPP devices is straightforward.
+Details of the final assembly process are described in \autoref{SEC:assembly}.
+
+A WPP device is made up of many separate commercially available parts.
+This guide assumes that you have already procured those parts.
+The project repository provides README files containing a bill of materials for each component with detailed part numbers and suggested vendors.
+
+\subsection{Base Fabrication} \label{SEC:base}
-TODO: FIGURE 2 FROM OPERATION GUIDE
+\begin{figure}[H]
+ \includegraphics[width=\textwidth]{"./fig2.png"}
+ \caption{(A) Commercial 20 mm LED star mounted with 450 nm Cree, Inc. XT-E LEDs. (B) Top-down view of WPP base depicting integrated LED star.}
+\end{figure}
-The WPP architecture utilizes industry standard 20 mm LED star circuit boards mounted with 3 high-intensity LEDs to deliver photons to photoreactions (Figure 2A).
-These LED star boards are commercially available or can be easily fabricated (see fabrication guide).
+The WPP architecture uses industry standard 20 mm ``LED star'' circuit boards mounted with 3 high-intensity LEDs to deliver photons to photoreactions (Figure 2A).
+LED stars are commercially available or can be easily fabricated.
The range of wavelengths provided by a LED star depends upon the emission profile of the mounted LEDs.
-Through variation of the LED star integrated into a base (Figure 2B), the user can control the wavelengths of light delivered by the photon source to a reaction vessel.
-See fabrication guide for LED star installation instructions.
+\textbf{\textit{Through variation of the LED star integrated into a WPP base (Figure 2B), the user can control the wavelengths of light delivered by the photon source to a reaction vessel.}}
+An aluminim heatsink and cooling fan are integrated to keep the LED star from overheating.
-\subsection{3D Printed Enclosure} \label{SEC:enclosure}
+A list of LED stars tested with the WPP platform is available in the 'photon-source-leds' subdirectory of the project repository.
+It is easiest to use LED stars with pre-mounted LEDs.
+Otherwise, you can order discrete LEDs and bare LED star circuit boards to fabricate your own.
+Custom LED star production requires a reflow oven.

+ \includegraphics[width=\textwidth]{"./fig3.png"}
+ \caption{(A) Unsoldered commerical LED star. (B) LED star with leads. (C) Connectors on other end of leads.}
+\end{figure}
-A WPP reaction module consists of a reaction chamber and vessel holder.
-By modifying chamber height and adjusting holder geometry, one can produce modules compatible with reaction vessels of various types and sizes.
-Template reaction chamber and vessel holder CAD designs are provided in the project repository.
-CAD designs and 3D-printable models for modules compatible with 1-, 4-, 8- and 24-mL vials are also provided in the repository (Figure 3A—B).
+Fabrication of a WPP base begins with preparation of an LED star.
+Solder leads onto your LED star, using the red positive and black negative convention (Figure 3A---B).
+Soldering may be challenging, as the LED star itself will resist efforts to heat it.
+Using lead-based solder with a low melting point may help.
-A single reaction module can offer multiple layouts for reaction vessel placement.
-For the provided modules, two vessel placement configurations exist.
-First, the single reaction configuration, where one vessel is placed in the center of the module directly above the photon source (Figure 3C).
-This configuration exposes one vessel to maximum light intensity.
-Second, the multiple reaction configuration, where multiple vessels are placed in a circle around the photon source (Figure 3D).
-This configuration exposes each vessel to less light relative to the single reaction configuration but provides equivalent exposure to each vessel.
-Through variation of the reaction module, the user can configure the reaction vessel type, size and placement within a WPP apparatus.
+TODO: INCLUDE INSTRUCTIONS ON WHAT MALE CONNECTOR TO SOLDER TO END OF LED WIRES.
-The body of the WPR is made up of three main pieces:
+\begin{figure}[H]
+ \includegraphics[width=\textwidth]{"./fig4.png"}
+ \caption{(A) 3D-printed WPP base. (B) Securing a threaded inset into base.}
+\end{figure}
-\begin{itemize}
- \item Base, containing LEDs, fan, and drive electronics.
- \item Top plate accepting reaction vials.
- \item Chamber walls spacing the top plate at the appropriate distance away from the base.
-\end{itemize}
+Next, 3D-print the enclosure base and cable anchor models provided in the 'photoreactor-base' subdirectory of the project repository (Figure 4A).
+The same base is shared by all WPP devices.
-The WPR base is the same for all reactors.
-Look within the repository in the subdirectory ``photoreactor-base'' to find design and production files to produce the WPR base.
-You will also need to print a cable anchor, see files in that same directory.
+When interacting with the design files in our repository you will see several filetypes.
+We have designed the WPP enclosure using Fusion 360, and included f3d design source files for those that wish to extend or modify our designs.
+Interacting with f3d files requires use of Fusion 360 license.
+You will also find stl files in the repository.
+These are common 3D-model exchange files which can be viewed with 3D modeling programs or printed with 3D-printers.
-The top plate and chamber height must be specified for the particular reaction vessels used.
-Four examples for different vial sizes are pictured above.
-Look within the repository in the subdirectory ``photoreactor-tops'' to find existing designs.
-We encourage you to design your own if none of these suit your application.
-Consider adding your new designs to repository so that others may benefit from your design efforts.

-In fact, GitHub itself has a built in stl viewer which you may use to inspect our designs.
-
-There are many options for getting your enclosures printed.
-We recommend white PLA as a material, although any white material should work---we have also used ABS.
-If you are printing yourself, follow the instructions provided by your printer to produce slices and program your printer.
-Note that you will need support material for the base.
-Any company or shop offering 3D printing as a service should be able to accept our stl files without further modification.

+You will need to enable support material for printing the base.
+Any company or shop offering 3D printing as a service should accept our stl files without modification.
+Once your base is printed you may need to remove excess material with a razor blade or exacto-knife.
We have succesfully printed using the following printers:
\begin{itemize}
- \item Ender 3
- \item Stratasys uPrint SE Plus
- \item Ultimaker 3
+ \item Creality Ender 3
+ \item Stratasys uPrint SE Plus
+ \item Ultimaker 3 Extended
\end{itemize}
-Once your parts are done you may need to remove extra bonding material with a razor blade or exacto-knife.
-The three pieces of your reactor should fit together snugly and securely.
+Each base contains seven threaded heat inserts.
+These allow components such as the drive circuit board to rigidly attach to the base via machine screws.
+Use a soldering iron to carefully heat these while pushing them into their cavities (Figure 4B).

+
+Now tap an aluminum heatsink for imperial 4-40 machine screws.
+We used thread-forming tap: OSG 1400105300 with a pneumatic ``air-tapper'' (Figure 4).
+The heatsink can be tapped by hand.
+You only need to tap two of the innermost holes.
+
+Install the LED star and heatsink into the WPP base using 1/4'' screws.
+Ensure the LED wires face towards the hole in the side of the printed base.

+Use 3/4'' screws here.
+Then, install the cable anchor using a 1/4'' screw.

+
+To test the photoreactor base, simply screw a driver board to the threaded standoffs and plug the LED and fan into the board.

+Your base should light up upon connection to power.
+Remember to use proper eye protection.

-Once 3D printing is done and PCBs have been filled, WPR assembly is fairly straight-forward.
-The various electronic components must be installed into the base (pictured above), as described in \autoref{SEC:base}.

-TODO: FIGURE 8 FROM OPERATION GUIDE
To conduct a photoreaction using a WPP device, an assembled apparatus should be placed on a lab stir plate, to provide reaction mixture stirring, and reaction vessels should be inserted into the apparatus in the desired layout (Figure 8).
The 130 by 130 mm footprint of the WPP architecture is compatible with typical stir plates.
