I am curious if you can snap a pic or two of how you did the LED's. I am assuming you filled them in with hot glue like the guide or did you let them stick out the case?

Love the build. Especially that color! If I do another build, I am going to use that color or some other transparent color. My worry would be, the leds on kites board would be visible and bright at night.
I filled the tops with hot glue mate. Seems to work nicely! This way nothing protrudes from the case, nice and flat 👍🏼

Thanks too, i really like the clear red! You can definitely see the lights through the case however I've found the button clicking draws more attention than the LEDs 🤣

As I have a clear case ive also blacked out the rounded corner along with interal screen edge so it looks better once closed.
g'day mate (fellow aussie, though I live in Canada now)...

Can you please post some front-on pics of your build, with the screen on etc. I'm really leaning towards some sort of clear case for my build (will be getting one of kite's swords). But I gotta admit, I don't know what's going to be with that bottom right corner.... how much shows through? How does it look with a clear case if you tape that bit black (which is the same possible solution I though tup then found your build).

Any advice / input / feedback appreciated.

Cheers,
David

Howdy mate,

I'm actually English living in Aus.... :D

Will fire it up and grab some pics tonight. It's not something that I notice during gameplay so I can only assume I works well... but I'm sure there are a few options available to black it out completely, tape being one.

From memory I just used a sharpie on the case but some light does show through.

Watch this space...
