Simply AWESOME !
Fantastic technique. Just what I was looking for!
wow 😱 you are A genius man 😊
I have been looking into how to get my 3 led to be bigger, now thanks to you, i have great way to do
Great video, man!
You can consider sanding the LED's plastic, to make the LED itself already more diffuse. Thanks for the tip, essentially you've made an edge-lit mirror. 👍

Nice!! Excellent idea to diffuse the LED, I will need to try this tip....Thank you for sharing!
Very cool. I’ll have to give that a try
Awesome solution

Nice Video!!!
Excellent stuff!
Open cell packing foam or cotton balls may work as well. Even toilet paper might help

I've used synthetic pillow stuffing with good results
awesome!
Great method. I’m interested in how the top acrylic sits flush on the top with tape around the sides on a zero clearance square opening…and also not show the aluminum tape from the front. Fantastic effect

Actually I don't use zero clearance, the hole is inset around 2mm to allow gluing the acrylic tiles at the back of the panel. The aluminum tape is not visible this way, I make sure of that when I glue the acrylic tiles.
Apakah bisa acrylic diganti dengan kaca ukuran 5 mm?

Menurut saya tidak, seperti yang Anda lihat di video, akrilik tidak tembus cahaya, melainkan agak buram
Fantastic effect! Apologies if I missed it, but where do you get the acrylic tiles. Do you make them or have a source online?

@ssskids123 You can cut acrylic with woodworking tools. Wear eye protection because knockoff plastics can shatter (often sold as "acrylic"). Make one side diffuse with 180-240 grit sandapaper.
Because you Design a new Bright 🌞 light led
Is it possible to get the link to the raw acrylic panel you used ? (Before you cut it to tiles)

I am using the satin clear version, I buy it from this manufacturer : www.engraving-supplies.ca/acrylic-sheets/troglass-satins.html
you think FOIL has the same effect?
