World LED Wooden Map

All map variations feature a precision laser-cut and hand-glued plywood panels for an outstanding quality experience. Country borders, names and capital cities are nicely engraved (where space permits). Continents fit perfectly for an awesome look. Various countries are stained to 5 different colours (plus one natural unstained layer) with natural wood stains.

LED Backlight

The 5mm/0.2in acrylic plexiglass is laser-cut to extend about 3mm/0.12in beyond the wooden edges of the map. This creates a beautiful diffused lighting effect once the LED backlight is on. The dimensions shown are for the wooden world map and thus the final installed dimensions are 3mm/0.12in extra on each side.

LED controller requires an AC power outlet. The main cable runs from South America or Antarctica (can be customised). A remote for the LED lighting is included. You can also install a smartphone app to control the colour of the LEDs.

Colour Options

Classic multicolour in English language is the standard edition. When you purchase other wooden accessories like the Monuments and Landmarks or remote islands extension pack with the World map, they will be stained the same.

Please note that our maps are manufactured from natural materials which are not perfect and the wood texture reacts to staining distinctly. Since the maps are hand-made that is what we actually love about them. Thus, the real-world colours of our maps may be different from what you see in online photos (phone and monitor screens also display colours differently).

How to Mount the Map on a Wall?

The installation itself is a nice trip around the World :)

Each map comes with simple instructions for an easy set-up. Different surfaces might require different mounting solutions.

1. Use the corner templates, level and painter's tape to measure out the wall space required for the map installation.
2. Each individual panel has predrilled holes in the acrylic base for mounting the metal stands.
3. Metal stands need to be attached to the wall using hardware suitable for your wall type. The stand has a hole in its base through which you attach it to the wall. Afterwards you place each plexiglass map part on top of the mounted stands (2 or 3 stand per each map piece) and secure it in place using the threaded stand top covers.
4. Install the Europe + Asia part using the corner template - it comes in one piece (2 separate pieces for the MEGA map).
5. Install Africa and South Asia parts using the cardboard stencils.
6. Install North America part using the corner template.
7. Then attach place Greenland and South America using the positional templates.
8. Install Canary Islands and Australia + New Zealand parts which come in idividual pieces.
9. Cables for the LED lighting have connectors which need to be joined for each individual part.
10. Attach individual smaller islands onto the plexiglass using the included double sided tape.
11. Install the remaining optional accessories like compass, Antarctica, etc.
12. Connect the LED controller to the map, plugin in the AC adapter and you are ready to go.
