Edge-lit sign

Hi Kirk,

Please see post #9 in this thread for a link to the supplier I use for the LED Units.

The Wall Wart units for the LED Lights are 110 Volt to 12 Volt DC.

You can also get an adapter at Radio Shack and power them from a 9 Volt Transistor battery. They may not be quite a bright but are easily visible using the 9 Volt Transistor Battery. I don't know what the battery life on the 9 Volt Transistor Battery would be.

Hi Guys,

No problem on supplying the informaton.

I have received a lot of valuable information here on the Zone and I am always glad to share any knowledge that I may have. Kind of a little pay back deal

Kirk, I would love to see one of your laser cut LED Signs should you decide to do one.

One of our clients wanted letters with backlighting. The idea was to have the lights wash on the background. The problem was a background of medium dark rock. The solution was beveled 1/2” plex with LEDs placed in groves down in the plex











This was a fun project with my assistant, Ron Mitchell.

Thanks for the complement.

One note about the ribbed texture. That was an easy technique. I used the max step-over using a 1/4" ball nose bit. There are lots of creative looks which can be made using other bits.

James,

Your local sign supply will have LED's and transformers. I get mine from Reece Sign Supply. I called today to find the current price. They are going for $5.00 a foot. The transformer will push 40'.

Good luck
