I'd say a glass AR lense, a bit of solder and some wire. If you add common sense and decent tools you shouldnt have any problems.

So I have all the core materials, did I miss out anything else? Thanks Brum

I plan to fit a 55mm Hoya skylight filter glass to replace the plastic one.:grin2:

Not to forget some AA-epoxy, teflon-wire and a DMM would be good to test the isolation of the Led's on the heatsink (but 2Alky-AA's will work too). Alcohol cleaner for the solder joints.
Something to snip the corner's at the Led's is also helpful.

Best regards
