I stumbled across you in a search. I really like your simplicit way of building these.👍🏾 You gave me so many ideas. I made my 1st two last week with a few changes. I ordered the FSJEE 4 pin light LED connector strip kit from Amazon around $14 to give me that clean alignment with my lights. I used precut plexiglass from Lowe's on the back. I painted the middle leaving about 2" from the edges to give that soft back-lit glow. So, thank you for the inspiration and ideas!

Very cool! Great ideas, thanks for sharing and watching the video. Im glad I was able to help with inspiration. I love videos made for everyday people (non-experts). :)

Made my own using your video as a basis. Thanks man! Well I'm almost done, just need to finish one more frame with the tape, waiting on the led's, and velcro strips. Other than that its coming out great so far and can't wait to light them up this weekend!

HI.Ive tried to make this also..but not sure what im doing wrong. All yours the light is so nicely dispersed and even...but yet on mine you can definitely see the led strip and the path it takes running up and down. I also tried to take the back of the plastic that the frame has (that you sandwich the poster) and took an orbital sander to make it all like a cloudy derspersive area. Nope shows the same thing. (also even on the lowest setting for the LED lights shows it also) How do you get yours so you don't see the LEDs pattern? I watched your video over and over..not seeing that you used any sort of dispersing the light. I also used a Double sided poster. If you or anyone have any suggestions, please put in a comment below or reach out to me and I'll send you an email..thanks

In case anyone reads this comment in the future I helped him through direct messages. He needed to leave about a 2 inch gap between the back where the lights are and the poster itself. The lights were too close to the poster, so don't make the light box too thin, it needs room to disperse the light. Also, he left off the aluminum tape on the sides. It needs to be completely taped with HVAC aluminum tape completely from edge to edge behind the poster and on the sides.
