:P you can find these at the old LimKokWing (Taman Mayang) art-supply shops :)

or better, plastic supplier stores (i know of one, off Jalan Kenanga, the road's next to Jalan Hang Tuah's fire Station :) )

thanks stanley
but actually what does it do actually?

any1 has the old forum link?
or does any1 care to teach again? with improvement maybe?

saw the previous angel eyes diy project, n the links featured inside..
quite impressive.. but the process is kinda tedious n risky..
hate to deal wit resistor
but the outcome is superb!

i was thinking of having fiber optics inside those oxygen tubes u use for yor aquarium..
then use wires to bend a shape u like n attached the tubes on it..
i mean, every1 has been making round 1.. y not customise according to the shape of yor lights?

but the very 1st problem i can think of is, the heat is gonna melt the tubes

any1 got any ideas bout this to share?

 

[InitialD]

hi, i was looking over ur idea.. and i think if you can get the fibre optic cable, it should be great, and the lights should not melt the tube.
the prob is, for a believable light, it has to be bright enuff, meaning the fibre optic cable has to be thick. thick ones cant really bend.
if u can solve this, then i think the prob is solved.

 

[fuankee]

i bought all the materials needed..except optic fiber..
the LEDs fit well in the oxygen hose..

any1 know where to get optic fiber?

 

[khguan]

mayb u can try using fishing threads as ur fibre optic...

but i tot using fibre optics u can only c de light at de end of de cable?
