The clusters are 26mm (1 inch) or 52mm (2inch) diameter tubes about 39-45mm
long.
You would need a pretty big drill for that!
They also do most of the indiviual LED's I mentioned in 3mm, 5mm, 8mm, and
10mm packages. Solder wires to the leads, cover with heatshrink and then
fit
into the hole. Pump full of clear silicone sealant and it will be fine.
....and yes, most of it was copied out of the Rapid catalogue ;-)

Wow, thanks for doing all that typing. Out of a catalogue?

These sound like they might just be perfect. What kind of package? My
current plan is to drill holes in some small stones, fit the LEDs inside,
and
then pot with something transparent.
I could run three core to all the clusters and adjust the voltages on the
two
feeds to chose colour.
