Hi guys,
Looked at Tim Layton's site for converting his lightbox. I bought the same UV lights he has. So economical and I can't wait.

Has anyone else built a box? I'm using a 1x4 for the sides, so I figure about between 3-4" from light surface to contact frame.

In his website, he does 2.5" in between lights. I'm wondering if that was the space in between the LED or 2.5" in between the strips (which will make the LED a little farther apart.

I've seen some DIY lightboxes with those lightstrips from Amazon, and they are spaced a lot more closer.

My largest camera right now is an 8x10, any thoughts on spacing the LED closer? Or farther? Or start with 2.5" in between the lights (not the light holder).
