Awesome. Tell Danny thanks for the measurements. I think the framework looks good. I assume he's planning to hang it from the two metal strips on the ends of the fixture?
YUP.....he measured the slots in the light we have. He is planning on using the hangers that we have the Outer Orbit hanging from right now

OH MY...YES he does have a router YAYYY
I can have the pieces cut a bit oversize than he needs....That way when he glues them up, he can keep everything square, and take the router with a flush cut bit, and trim everything flush and neat!!!!!!!
Seeing the pics makes my mind start to wonder.....I might have to call my buddy that the only thing he'll weld is aluminum!!!!!!!

OK...Danny just said he was thinking he wanted 3/8 thick acrylic for the outer walls so he could bevel (notch) the edges, so they would fit inside each other

Sounds like he wants to make a mitered box. Makes it a little more technical as you need your cuts to be spot on. But it is a nicer, cleaner look.

Here's some layouts for a reference point.
Hopefully you can blow these up and see them better. But here's the measurements that I would go with for the available heat sink surface area that you guys have.

Below is a version of how some of them would look with the colors on them.

This is one idea for a layout...
Here's another, similiar but all blues are in a straight linear line, and all whites are in line.
Let me know if you guys have any other ideas. I can switch some colors around if need be and draw in the wiring.

I could make them bigger on the screen, BUT for some reason when I tried to print the FULL set it was small....LOL..
