How To Make a Custom Neon LED Sign!

I do this but using a 3d printer.

Finally, exactly what I was looking for! Dollar General has 6 ft sections for 5 bucks in blue green red and white, was wondering if I could of used them to make a neon. This is perfect. Now I don't have a way to make a channel board so that's my next challenge. Thank for the video.

how think of acrylic did you use?

Have you ever seen a 3 to 4 second delay from plugging in the LED strip to lights on? I am trying to add this to an automated Lights-o-Rama show and need a consistent on/off time. Maybe a higher Amp P/S?

Dab of silicone on those soilder points would work.

Laser cut. Do you make them for people for a fee?

You are good.

How do you/make the back plate mold? I would love a video on that please!❤

But if you add the protect connectors will be thicker than led strings

I have a few questions. What brand of laser cutting machine do you have, and how thick is your plexiglass. Didn't see links to either one.

how do you embark on disco-type led signs?

OH I wish my cricut could cut acrylic! I love these

I just recently saw these and you're the only one who shows how to do it. Thank you for that

What is the best place to buy crocodile clip testing kit?

Awesome tutorial

Hello, thank you for your excellent video, what kind of glue do you use? Where can I order?

How do i get a cutting shaoe arround my text design

This is cool! What kind of wire are you using to connect each led section? Also, what kind of battery power supplies are available, and how do I connect the led strips to the power?

Where can I get the neon strip displayed in the video. Here in NZ they don't seem to be able to get it.

Exact same way I made mine, those strips are really nice

Great Video Norm !! It would be great if you could do a specific video on Adobe Illustrator for doing these cool neon signs you made ? I'm thinking about some "Blade Runner" themed neon projects . This would be awesome , you have a much better way of explaining a procedure for these creative movie type projects ! Please consider it ?

Can you make a tutorial on how to use the laser cutter w/ any design, how to specifically input parameters etc?

What kinda power source did you use?

Hey Norm - great job on this! Did you find that the end caps added width dimension making it harder to fit into the graphic channels? Or not really a problem?

thanks for the heads up about where to cut, leaving that 1/8" makes a lot of sense. ive been wanting to play around with this stuff, my order will be here soon. very interesting video

the power leads all tied together was such an ingeniously simple inventive idea! It is strangely a "backwards" way to think of it, and it made thinking about the whole idea of a project for a neurodivergent like myself way less anxiety ridden!

Very informative video. Ty

That is so cool. Thank you for sharing! I learned a lot.

Can you 3D print the housing for these strips as well?

For anyone looking for a free tool that is capable of actually changing a raster to vector (if you'd want to scan an image) - you have InkScape. It's a bit complicated at first but with Google you will easily find a tutorial how to use this software.

tight that f glasses ... what the helli

Too much talkie talkie talkie🙄🥱😵‍💫

Nice video I like it! Really useful and helpful! Only question I kept wondering throughout watching it was why does your wife Danica spell her name with a lowercase d?

thats love!!!

Excellent video. Just a quick question - what about us pre-millenial peasants who don't owe a laser cutter? Any suggestion how do we make a lead channel, but on budget? Thnx in advance!

Salamat sir rey valera

I want to make one of these really large of the RTJ logo but I do not have any of these programs

My question is what about the end? Like do you connect it to a plug? If so what connection do you use?

What gauge wire??????

What do you do with the wires in the back?

I ordered the same Flexible Neon LED Strip that you recommended, but for me, I can see every single LED in the strand. The diffusion is not the same as what I see in your video. I know that in-person vs. video can be different. Do you also see the individual LEDs or are you seeing it like a traditional neon tube presents?

hello, a question, what kind of wire do you use to connect the led strips? I guess it's copper, but what thickness?

What does the back look like on the finished sign?

Thanks i wanna do a project like this

Not sure if it's just the red version of the same strip; but be aware that there are hotspots in the light. It's not perfectly diffused.

What wattage laser is needed to cut Plexiglas?

Thanks for sharing this with us, i need the name of the tool you used to fixing the neon in the minute 15. Thanks
