NoPsi Posted January 25, 2007 Report Share Posted January 25, 2007 Bunnings would. They have everything. Very clever of the guy. I don't know if it is something I would do though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheNOBBLER[RL] Posted January 26, 2007 Report Share Posted January 26, 2007 You wouldnt even have to do them round, any shape you like I would assume...could look really good! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camerondownunder88 Posted January 26, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2007 Hi, Well today I went out and bought 4 LED's for this project the brightest I could get there rated for 20,000mcd :D And are green should should look hot. I also imagine any shape would work not just round so maybe even rectangular like KE70 head lights?? But I drove all around Ipswich today trying to find clear plastic rod NOTING every craft shop, bunnings, supercheap model shop you name it doesn't sell plastic rod AHAHAH so if anyone see's some let me know so I can go buy it.

camerondownunder88 Posted January 26, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2007 Hi, Well it turns out they havent so I decided to buy the rods on ebay..lol DANG OLD TOWN!!!! Cost me $1 for buy now of a 3/8 inch diameter 36 inch long rod so that will be enough to make 2 eyes with left overs.. :D So can't wait for the postie now :y: As the lights I imagine will only take abotu 2-3 minutes to make..lol Cameron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheNOBBLER[RL] Posted January 30, 2007 Report Share Posted January 30, 2007 good work, keep us updated! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camerondownunder88 Posted January 30, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2007 Well stalled today..lol The postage on the plastic rods off ebay was $30 so mm ill forget them. But hoping this weekend to try curtain shops or ring the local plastic maker that says on there web site they do acrylic rod so fingers crossed. As if I get it should be able to have working eyes in about 10/20 minutes. So will keep you all updated. Cameron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HEKTIC Posted January 30, 2007 Report Share Posted January 30, 2007 hey cameron, id be really interested to see how these turn out, have u thought about putting a black part in also? so you have the light then a back bit with a whole and the angel eye? so it looks more aggresive? I'd be very interested in pictures once you are done :) could you add me on msn so we can talk in more detail? John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
