Went well, he is working on a prototype that Im sure will look much nicer than mine. He is planning on doing a 10 blade run for now.
It will have the same construction as mine, 3 layers of 3mm acrylic and will be using the 1515 led strips. he will use some difusing material on the edge( i did not) to hide the individual leds better. He also will be using the proper glue so that the acrylic does not bleach out like mine did.
He should have a prototype complete over the weekend and I will share some pics.
Price wise he thinks that he can make them for around $275-$300 but ill confirm once he is done with the prototype.

Unfortunately those are just RGB not RGBW. Guess I'll stick with the 1515 for now. Thanks.

Hey, any word on the LEDs? Just got your chassis printed up and need to start installing my Proffie.
Im sorry this is a commission so it wont be available for printing for a while. The belt ring is still not clear where it goes so ill wait till the season ends to see if we can glance it
