Here is an easy, fun, and inexpensive way to make your own BLUE LED's. 1) Buy some clear LED's from Digikey. Even easier, go down the street to a Radio Shack and buy some. 2) Go to a hardware store, and buy some blue paint and some thinner for it. Make sure the thinner doesn't react with the plastic on the LED's. 3) Mix up a thin batch of blue paint. Use the thinner to do this. 4) Coat the LED's with a thin coat of thin blue paint. Allow to dry. Make sure the coat isn't too thick. 5) After your LED's are dry, try selling them to suckers for $50 a pop. I hope this works for you. If you make money selling your "blue" LED's, how about giving me a few $$ :-> -Dave Dave "mr question" McIntyre | "....say you're thinking about a plate home : 518-276-5842 | of shrimp.....and someone says to office : 518-276-8633 | you `plate,' or `shrimp'......" mcintyre@turing.cs.rpi.edu |
