While at Plastic Depot I noticed a big sheet of refractive plastic that was used in overhead lighting bays. It had the exact refractive quality I was looking for to fit under the Plexiglas piece. Kyle cut a piece that fit perfectly into the underside of the base, locking in right after the outer ring. But since the floor underneath was still visible through both layers, I took some opaque silver Mylar and backed the refractive plastic with that. It gave the whole base a very lenticular, 3-D look.
