Hi Rob,

Thanks, mate!

It's coming together quite well. I'll post some more images later and a first light being illuminated by my 24" widescreen LCD.

I just realised yesterday that the plastics supplier sold me two differing types of Perspex. When I held one up to the window, I couldn't see anything, which is what I expected. I held the other one up, and I could see an orange sun which was blaring from behind the clouds. Dang!

Not to worry, I'll put the slightly transparent one closest to the LEDs and let the more opaque sheet do more of the diffusing.

Regards,
Humayun

I found the a number of very handy diffuser layers in an old dead 17" LCD I had lying around - knew I kept it for something....! Your plastic looks perfect and much tougher too.
