Really like what you did with the "Danger Zone" logo and LED. I just received my board and rip you off for that idea... uh... I mean borrow that idea. If you don't mind.

Wow...you guys are awesome. Thank you for the kind words and encouragement.
@Marko....I will see if I can get some recording gear so I can start posting sound clips.
@Bill.....The greatest thing about this community is that we constantly influence and inspire each other to build greater things. If I inspire somebody else, I am thrilled.

Where did you get that LED lens? That is perfect for things like this.

Hope this helps Bill. They have different colors. I used clear lens with a 10mm yellow led.

This is what I bought.

Hi Steve, Looks like you have the retaining ring that's shown on the data sheet holding the Fresnel to the enclosure. I haven't come across that in the Mouser catalog, is it safe to assume that the retaining ring and lock washer are included with the fresnel?

Thanks a lot, great looking build and Mac's enclosures are real nice, snap em up while you can.

Thanks. I wonder if these are the same one that SmallBear offers.

On further investigation SmallBears are not the same. They are for 5mm LED's, Mousers are for 10mm LED's.

Hi Dave, the retaining ring and the lock washer do indeed come with the fresnel lens. :)

I have some enclosures shaped this way. they are steel rather than aluminum. can they be etched the same way?
