Fiber optic lighting kits
Posted by Anonymous on Sunday, July 10, 2005 10:51 PM
Hope someone can help me out with this. Does anyone have a source for fiber optic lighting kits, like the ones used for lighting up ship windows, etc? I know darn well they are out there, but I can't seem to find a source.

Thanks

You might try Walthers. The train guys are years ahead of us on fiber optics in models.

I got my fiber optics from The Fiber Optic Store: www.thefiberopticstore.com
High quality and lots of choices. You can even get "packages" on eBay.

Not necessarily a complete kit (you need to supply a small light source, like LEDs), but great stuff for models. These guys might be a lot of help: http://www.fiberopticproducts.com/Models.htm

If you're like me and want to do it yourself, here are some fantastic sources for LED lighting...
