It's way too soft IMHO and will just dirty your gearbox or may just destroy it if a chunk comes lose or the whole thing for that metter.

Just my opinion.

1. I melted the led to a tear shape, just enough amount of it to make the sector chip, on a smooth flat surface (preferably metal).

2. I used sand paper and file to re-shape the led.

3. drill it.. (in my case, i used a screw + screw driver... i hate standing up to look for our drill).

4. install it... If you have any doubts that your DIY sector chip doesnt fit tight, put a small amount of super glue.


Since the led it soo soft.. i'm not sure how long it will last.

btw.... the sector chip i made was the round type one.. wasn't able to take pictures... sorry...
