OK, the holes are drilled, the LEDs are mounted individually using clear silicone. The silicone actually gives it a "glassed in" appearance at the holes. They are not soldered up yet. Here's a macro shot showing what it looks like if you have your nose pressed up against it and it's in a sun beam. It's now at a point that if you didn't know that it wasn't normally there, you'd never notice it. Even ERAChas is going to say "dang Pat, you are absolutely amazing. ERA would be honored to have you come and fab for them." The fixture is not cleaned up, so the macro shot actually shows the dust and grime that you can't really see with the naked eye.

Here, I angled it so the sun would catch the LEDs, otherwise you can't really see them. This is the most you will ever be able to see of them, when they're not lit, that is. C'mon Chas, you know Bob's putting together the offer letter as we speak.  Yessirreee, maybe they'll even let me answer the phone, too.

Isn't there a saying about idle hands?

And if they do let me answer the phone, and the CallerID says it's you, I'll put on a phony spanish accent, like Seņor Wences, and regardless of what you ask I'll just reply "esta en el baņo."

I like Bernica's idea of a recessed air cleaner baseplate to fit a bigger air filter better.
This is the classic scenario of a "solution looking for a problem."
