Method 
 

Using multicolour printer

Print the ‘interface with letters’ model letters down using supports, printing the letters in while and the interface in black.  Glue the LEDs in place with the legs aligned to the outside edges of the letters, long legs on one side, short on the other.

Using a single colour printer

Print the front letters in white and the interface in black.  Align parts and glue the LEDs in place from behind using them to align the letters to the interface layer, with the legs aligned to the outside edges of the letters, long legs on one side, short on the other.


Wiring

Run the positive wire from the resistor around all the long legs.  Run the negative wire from all the short legs back to the negative (GND) terminal on the USB board.

Connect the resistor to the positive (VBUS) terminal on the USB board.

I found it was easier to use long pliers to bend over the LED legs and crimp them to the wire as I ran it around the interface part.  Once all the LEDs were connected I the act of soldering the connections burnt off the wires insulation to make a good electrical connection. 

Tip.  If you start with the USB connector, attach the resistor and then the wires, you can connect it to power and as you solder each LED it should light up allowing you to check they are connected right as you go.

 

Assembly 

Just push the back over the interface, no glue needed.
