Thanks for sharing the progress. I like the idea of the card stock mock up.

Where did you get the clear pins? They would work well for all sorts of lights.

I’ve learned to use those card mock ups since sometimes the dimensions were’nt right, allthough measured before. And it’s much faster and cheaper to use Pizza packaging than polysterol sheets :lol:
Meanwhile I have quite a variety of them :lol:

...and for the pins i bought them at a local store, that mostly deals with remaining stocks of closed businesses.
