This is what I made for a school project, its a number 8 (my house number) made of LEDs, I was made out of a 8X8X4 inch junction box along with a 120 volt AC - 12 volt DC transformer.
Thanks, there's a whole sale electronic place here, they have pretty good prices on this stuff (though its probable not economical for you to drive here Devonte)
Update: I went to that A1 Electronics place a few weeks ago, they sure did have some strange stuff! I got a strange bar code scanner that was shaped like a cat. They didn't really have much lighting stuff though, I still am going to go to the surplus store soon with the FCO lenses and get a few (I somehow doubt they will run out any time soon).
Anyways I'm pretty sure they won't run out of FCO lenses (besides who'd want two cases of them) and look around too I've found some pretty odd stuff in that store.
i figure it's pretty accessible to you since it's in the Toronto area though where i'm not sure.
(you'll have to see it yourself )
I picked up some fuse lamps, a metal pull box and mogul socket when I was there.
There's quite a few electronic places in my area too, and there's always Active Surplus down in Toronto where my traffic light LEDs came from.
