I'm assuming you're putting them in a hexagon with 4 LEDs on the outside
segments.  Get a piece of that circuit board with all the
predrilled/pretinned holes and put all your LEDs in.  Pull them down
tight to the circuit board.  Just solder cathode-to-anode in a spiral
and connect the outermost lead and the innermost lead that aren't
connected to anything else.
