Tron fiber optic kit

thingiverse

Want to spice up your TRON arcade cabinet? This kit is the perfect way to make your TRON really stand out from the rest. These custom clips designed by Kent Stowe (The_Blen) and myself (Ridicrick) combined with some fiber optic cables and a little bit of hardware is all it takes to complete this project. Here is the parts list to make the project happen. Print (2) Light engine to 8mm adapters Print (12) Split clips Print (2) Return clips Print (2) Tension clips (4) 5mm x 8mm Set screws (18) 5mm x 10mm Install screws (4) 5mm x 12mm Tension screws (used on Tension clips) (2) 1x1cm mirrors (you will probably get a pack of 200 and only need 2) (4) corner brackets (to mount the fiber optic engine on top the cabinet) (1) fiber optic 2 head RGBW LED engine (25ft) of 8mm fiber optic side glow cable You can use the pictures of our finished cabinet to get the idea on how to install most of the kit. The clips screw onto the t-molding ths way only the t-molding is damaged as that can be replaced easily if needed. The tension clips are used to actually keep a nice tight tension on the cable so its not loose and flimsy. The tiny mirrors (you only need two) get installed at the very end of the cable inside the "Return clip" and the set screw keeps the mirror in place. This mirror bounces back the light making the cable more evenly lit up. The 8mm adapters make the 8mm fiber optic cable fit the Fiber optic engine holes and prevent light from escaping. The rest of the install is basic common sense. You could use these kits for any arcade cabinet, table, or whatever your clever mind comes up with. We hope you enjoy this fun mod! Thanks!
