More LEDs

Now, its time for a pretty boring part: drilling of holes for LEDs and installation of LEDs for the lighting. I bought 1,000 of the beggars from eBay for around $30, straight from Hong Kong.


It took me ten hours to assemble the entire LED array. That was quite a task.


Some LEDs in action - they’re red, not pink, I assure you! You can start to see how the lighting is going to work.


Then it's time for some last bits of tidying up - some stripes added to the acrylic front, installation of the HDD cage and some aluminium strips for the roof.

With all these bits & bobs done, I pulled it all together, shoved the hardware in and stood back for a look at the final product.
