LED Stands and mini's - anyone done this?
« on: June 27, 2007, 08:17:30 PM »
I'm starting to tinker around with making LED stands for my Force FX, and I found myself wondering if the mini's had a similar stand that could be "LED'd" up.  I haven't see the stand for the minis, but I thought it would fun to LED the blade color for each one if possible.

Anyone tried/heard of people trying this?  Is the stand capable of supporting it, or even big enough for the work, if it has the clear supports?

I believe Snoballz attempted this a long time ago.  However, it was mentioned it would be impossible to open up the mini stands without breaking them since they are built differently than the large ones.  You can't remove the base on the mini stands like you can the big ones.

About the best you can do is modify the triple stands.  I toyed with that idea just to add some lights but was too lazy to do it.

Thanks for the input.  I was thinking the same about the triple stands, or whatever I do to display them, which I am not sure yet.
