In this video, I'll show you how to create a simple yet professional laser cut backlit acrylic sign without using any glue. This step-by-step tutorial will guide you through the process, and you'll learn how to add LED lighting to create a cool neon sign. Perfect for businesses, events, or home decor. I also show a couple of bonus projects using two-tone acrylic.
Note: You could add acrylic glue to the back of the sign to reinforce the parts if the sign will be moved around a lot, and the glue is transparent so it won't affect the look of the sign.

I work at a company that does a lot of projects using acrylic and we solved this issue using frost, opal white (the name vary with the brand) or even ilumisheet. It ends the huge variation between dark and light portions of the sign.

Awesome stuff! Thanks for sharing! 😄 Quick tip! If you make the back enclosure a bit deeper, point the led ring inwards and then add an opaque/frosted acrylic behind the top layer, it would diffuse the light better and you wouldn't see the LED ring. This way you can evenly distribute the light through the front face. Either way, cool piece! 🚀

Another thing you can do for the light is make a diffuser. Get some thin frosted acrylic and cut a rectangle that’s as wide as the strip and as long as you need for the circle. Then just place it overtop the LEDs on the inside and it should soften the light so you don’t have any hard spots.

For the leds to reflect the light proportionately across the circle, your frame thickness need to be at least 1inch. Instead of cutting the circles and gluing them you could bend a black/white strip of 1 inch in round shape.

I actually tried using 2-way mirrored acrylic but it didn’t show through well enough. I ended up not including it in my video to keep the length down.

Laser Projects :: 🎉 yep . made it. but yeah. what about the distance of x and y. where is the strongest and weakest wavelenth the laser hits/cuts? do you often clean your laser for maximum cleanliness and efficiency?
@VoeltnerWoodworking
@VoeltnerWoodworking 6 месяцев назад
Sweet. Thank you. The strongest is closest to the laser source, so top left would be the strongest but this laser doesn’t have any issues getting through the material. As long as the laser is focused right it will be good. It depends on materials you cut on how often you’ll need to clean the lens. Every month is a good rule of practice. Thanks for watching.

laser projects. Okay, what thickness are you using? Where did you get the rope LED? Where did you get the acrylic? I want to try this at home. I custom built my laser cutter. 2 x 4 area with 20 watt output diode laser. I want to make the Miller beer witch sign and a Harley Davidson sign, and some of those old time garage signs like what you made. Well done. Try recessing the lights under the edge to hide the dots and cover the light strip with a diffused material, add the reflective to the back and you're set.

I recommend a dedicated laser engraver if you’re primarily cutting because of the work surface. A spoil board on a CNC is not going to be the best surface for cutting. The P2 or S1 are great machines by xTool. I have a few other videos on my channel with some other options. I hope they help.

Laser Project. I have all the parts to build something like this. I hadn't thought the LEDs would do that. I think I'm gonna have to pick up that rope and mirrored acrylic. Also an excuse to buy a laser. To cut said acrylic. Thanks!

Laser projects…what a great demo. I like you included fails (cause, don’t we all?) I don’t like the led hot spots, I will have to try the rope. Thanks!

I have this square LED fixture in our laundry closet. I disassembled it when I bought it so that I could retrofit the original light fixture from a 75w incandescent to an led. When I disassembled the fixture, I noticed they used similar LED's strip to what you have initially, but used a sheet of non transparent paper (kind of like tracing paper) and a sheet of glass to diffuse the light so you don't see the individual LED's. Just mentioning this as I know sometimes we get in a bind and have to work with what's on hand. This was an awesome project! Thanks for sharing.
