Just a bit of background before you call me an idiot here. I am in construction, I can build a house but don't know squat about electronics, of ANY KIND! Anyway, I am trying a new hobby, one that involves LED's. Basically it's an etched plexiglass sign lit with LED's. I want to try build it a bit differently as it needs to be as compact as possible to get the maximum visual effect. I want to drill holes in one side of the plexiglass and inset the LED's with epoxy not only to hold them in but to also clear up if you will the opaque holes from the drill bit to get the maximum output of light from the LED's. But, BUT, I haven't a clue on anything electronic, especially LED's as I said before. Are there different sizes (the smaller the better)? If so, are LED colors dependent on the size? Will any generic run of the mill epoxy work for this application?
I appreciate any help...
