    The rock lights are just ebay 5050 strip leds, I think they were $15 for 5 meters.
    I think having the angled out like they ate makes a huge difference in their spread and really lets their light shine!

    And the rest are the absolute cheapest leds I could find. I think I got 10m for $17.
    God bless fleabay...

    Its all about the angle of the dangle!

    The square tube us just 3/4" x .063 wall. With some random little tabs holding the square at about a 30* angle outwards. Then I ran zip ties around the strip to make sure it stays put. The whole assembly then is held to the legs of the sliders using good ol classic hose clamps.

    I vaguely remember big plans for this rig. So I'm subbing to provide comic relief and possibly utilize for fap material.

    I distinctly remember seeing tears and side cramps.
    Either I live up to my reputation....or you're actually a woman.
