I search this forum alot , to see how others do things, get some ideas or improve in some methods.
Now i'm waiting for shipping on some new LEDs. i hate being idle so i had an idea on making my string blade removable.
Male and female 9pin D-Sub Connectors. Not sure what method i'll use to keep the one in the blade secure. Probably wont need much as i wedged it in there and the connection between both does not require much force.

I was thinking of using a Retainer clip to keep in place but allow it to spin so when i screw the blade holder in it wont twist the wires.

The connector protrudes 4mm , the same as the female end on the blade. So the Tube will sit on the inside edge of the blade holder as normal. Simple retension screw holding the blade in place.
