64x32 P3 HUB75 LED Matrix - The one used in this project I bought direct from China, not from Adafruit and different LED panel manufacturers have different mounting hole locations.Ģ. Here are items in particular to check and adjust.ġ. VERY IMPORTANT: Before you laser cut the acrylic for this project, be sure and have all parts on hands first and measure to ensure they fit the mounting holes in the laser. Laser Cutter (I used a Glowforge with a 19.5" x 11 cutting area)Ĥ/40 Tap Tool (for tapping eight 4/40 holes for the maintenance ports) Kaptop tape (for securing the cables to the Pi header)ġx USB Audio Adapter (this is not really needed, while the Pi audio is known to be poor, I can't really tell the difference with this one)ĭupont Female Pin Crimp Terminals 2.54mm Pitch (for making your own cables with DuPont connectors that plug into the Raspberry Pi GPIO 40-pin header but you can also just use off the shelf cables and splice them which is cheaper
