I have to retain some little LED panels to a flat surface. The 3M

I sourced these panels from China and none of the sellers have any
clue for bezels. I don't think their translators handled that
conversation very well. sigh

Retainer depth of about 3mm.
Opening for LEDs: 52-55mm W x 36-36.5mm

Qty needed: 1 dozen.
Budget for this project: $10.


Find a pallet with some good looking wood. Put it on your
CNC router; cut out a bunch of nice looking and precisely
fitted frames. Cost of $0 (aside from time to program the
CNC and/or any broken router bits).
