I see a pattern here with this and the cattle hauler can't seem to put my finger on it but I am sure the "light bulb" will go off by the time I sign off this thread. Looks good so far smiley.

Anybody ever considered using "wire wrapping" to make all of those connection's instead of soldering? I have the tool from 25 year's ago.

Re: Toy Hauler

WOW that is going to be a ton of work!! I would like to see some picks of how you do your runs of lights I would say you are the man with it comes to LED lighting on the board.

Re: Toy Hauler

Actually, if you wire the led's in series, using led's of equal voltage and currant values, add them up, use the internet sites that do the math for you,
you will find it to be very easy.

I hope this helps forum members to try it.
