LED filter plastic
Does anyone know where I can by sheets of transparent coloured plastic for LED filters?

Re: LED filter plastic
I bought 'dark red tint see through'
from here
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Acrylic-Persp ... 1300425193
for a project where I have a large LED matrix display. Its pretty close to that used on CB radio but maybe not quite as deep a red
Can be cut with a sharp new stanley knife using multiple swipes

Re: LED filter plastic
Thanks for your reply.
The trouble is that 3mm is too thick for most uses, including what I need it for. 0.25 to 0.5mm would be ideal.

Re: LED filter plastic
If you have a local amateur dramatics group near you , maybe they have something suitable from an old stage lighting filter.

Try searching for acetate.
I need some to go with a Blue channel display so was thinking of smoke grey.

There is no such thing as a Fidelity 1000 which is too good to scrap.
