Framing prints in a light box!, by jed100375 on Aug 19, 2008 11:04:56 GMT 1, Before anyone starts.... I know this should really be in the framing section of the forum but really wanted as many people as possible to comment.
I looking to get a piece framed in a light box. I want LEDS round the inside of the frame that only reflect light towards the inside of the frame thus illuminatinf the picture.
Anyone ever done anthing like this before? What i don't want is the light shining from behind.
Also i read that LEDS produce no UV rays so there is no need for any clear guard beween the light and the piece.
Any suggestions of framers, pics of similar stuff or a point in the right direction would be most appreciated.
Thanks,
Jed

Maybe email www.hogarthlighting.com and ask if they have suggestions

Framing prints in a light box!, by bobbyt23 on Aug 19, 2008 13:51:04 GMT 1, I'm really looking forward to seeing this finished now even though I have just heard about it. I have a print I would quite like something similar doing to it. Can you e-mail me some details Gary?
Are you really gonna be on Dragon's Den?
