heckler Posted April 26, 2009 Author Share Posted April 26, 2009 (edited) Right, All PCB's are now drilled, using a 0.75mm drill bit http://www.internetwork.org.uk/lights/drill.jpg and now the PCB's look like this http://www.internetwork.org.uk/lights/drilled.jpg Took me about 2 hours to do in total. Next stage, soldering the Resistors on. Edited April 28, 2009 by heckler (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heckler Posted April 27, 2009 Author Share Posted April 27, 2009 (edited) Right peeps, I'll be doing a series of updates this evening for one of the PCB's (If I did all 8, i would be here for ever, they all look the same, you would get bored and unsubscribe, I actually dont have all the LED's at the moment!) Any way, quick note, I'll be shuffling my website around tommorow, so some pics may dissapear.. On with the show... This is the one of the reverse lights, which will end up with 76 x 30000mcd LED's Ring one. http://www.internetwork.org.uk/lights/led1.jpg As I update with new photos, the actual pattern will become more obvious - obviously...
