I bought a set of full sheets,(assorted colors) if 10 x 13 counts as full. They do come bigger. I planned to cut them down to the needed size for portions of the model. As an example, I planned to use white LEDs but yellow gel for the E's reaction thrusters and red gels with white LEDs again for imp...

Thanks

nav lights if we are talking green, red and white are about 1 second on and off. Strobes, bridge, nacelles and bottom of secondary are a fraction of a second, flashing 2 to 3 times per second. Start in around 1:18 of clip from tmp, leaving drydock.

Depends on whether there are 4 color bands or 5 on the resistor. The chart that you provided the link to shows 5 bands at the bottom and 4 at the top example. For 150 ohms with four bands, you would want brown, green, then brown as a multiplier of 10 and tolerance doesn't matter as we already have a...

Assuming the LEDs run with 3.2 to 3.4 volts each and require the typical 20 milliamps, the results below are what a program came up with.

Krylon Fusion - has anyone hear used it?
It's suposed to be ok for most plastics and is a primer and paint in one.
Since it has a primer in it, would you fill seam on the bare model plastic and then apply the krylon?

Has anyone tried Solid Core Side Glow fiber optics?
I was just checking out the fiber optic store and saw it. Would PVC tubing give a similar result?

I wanted to get a substantial amount in multiple colors if possible for wire wrapping/soldering projects.

where to find 32 awg stranded wire?
I checked the pinned suplies post but couldn't find what I needed. I haven't done well with google finding a couple of places that will sell 5 or 10 feet for $5 to $8 dollars.
