Working on new cables for my 690s and custom cables for lighting. Any suggestions for lighting color? I'm thinking of just plain white leds on both the left and right sides or white on the right and red on the left. Any thoughts on that?

Also spent quite some time working on my other build.

Personally I prefer white LEDs. Red (and other colors) tend to wash out anything else. Sometimes that's handy tho. thumb.gif

Understandable. I know I don't want it to look all childish from the light like my Project Atlantis build did with the UV. White on the right will allow things to show nicely through the smoked panel while on the left it should accent nicely. Really don't want super bright lights tho. If anyone has any suggestion for being able to control the brightness of led strips please let me know.

edit: also have a random question. Does anyone know whether it's possible to electroplate acrylic? My buddy stopped by after he went to register for classes and drop off some tanerite and said, "u know what would make this more absurd..." Pricing doesn't seem bad, just not sure whether it's possible.

I'll have to do some research. You can plate on plastic but I think it is usually done on ABS. I'll get back to you ASAP.

Ok I did some research and you can plate on acrylic substrates. The bad news is that it is usually done on items such as small beads for costume jewelry and for false nail tips. It will probably be pretty difficult to find a plating shop that can do a large piece for you. The good news is that you can get all kinds of different colors. I'll ask a friend of mine if he knows anyone that does this. What size piece are we talking about? Also is it the cast acrylic? Let me know so I can tell this guy what you're looking for.

It will probably be pretty difficult to find a plating shop that can do a large piece for you. The good news is that you can get all kinds of different colors. I'll ask a friend of mine if he knows anyone that does this. What size piece are we talking about? Also is it the cast acrylic? Let me know so I can tell this guy what you're looking for.

That kind of sucks that it's only done on small beads. I was thinking about having the front panel silver plated and the side braces which say danger den gold plated. Thanks for the heads up. +1

edit: I found a place out in CA that silverplates plastic and the site says that a majority of the cost is labor based since silver is so cheap. Gonna give them a call after my exam on Friday and just have Danger Den send them a new front panel to plate if they decide to take the job.

Oh that's awesome!! I'm glad you found someone so fast. I was pretty sure there had to be someone doing this. It's kind of a niche market but there are so many custom plating shops around there just had to be someone. I just wasn't sure if it was possible to plate acrylic.
