Thanks. My matrix is 35 pixels wide by 30 pixels tall at 2" spacing. More characters could come, but i'm pressed to finish my Halloween show right...

Select one of the obsolete parts to view its detail. Scroll down the description page a bit and you'll see a blue button that says "SHOW SIMILAR." ...
