Default Can't Find Transluscent Film for DIY: Amber Clock!!!!

Please direct me to a store that will have it. I've tried all around town with no luck. If you have any left over, or are willing to buy and ship it to me, I'd be more than willing to compensate you for it, thanks.

not sure if you have an AC MOORE around you, but its a craft store, they sell films for lights along with several other things, the one in my area has a ton of amber film, only problem is you have to buy it in christmas wrapping paper size rolls

i say just disassemble your clock, and there they have the purple lens, just spray can that into krylon glass paint orange (micheal's craft store). i havent tried it yet but i think it works the same way as translucent film.

dumbass go to your local checker's/auto store and buy the orange/amber lense repair kit. much thicker than a film. use double sided tape and you'll be fine.

C'mon people... Halloween is coming up and there's tons of orange celaphane and orange translucent paper lingering around all types of stores that people use for Halloween decorations and chit. Heh... doing the DIY amber clock is a seasonal thing .
