    2017 rambling thoughts so far ........

    Hmmm, my observations... 1. That screw you inserted to hold the panel down will find the cable underneath, and will require replacing the pixel. 2. Running cabling through the metal tubes is great until you have to put the prop up and the attached screw will then result in #1 3. It will...

    Perth RDC Lights

    I showed work the little display I did last year, and said I can’t really do much as our lease normally expires in November. They offered to do something there this year. It’s been a massive learning curve, multiple power supplies, different boards, and also only having two live tests has been...

    Perth Lights

    Yeah that star..... i did not want that star of the strips under it - they were introduced 3 weeks ago as we had lights left over. Pains me to say I love that star, and wish I had of had more time to really use it. The star is 2.4metires in height. There are 13x5m strips that make up that...

    Perth Lights

    Hiya, I've been quiet on here, but I've got our lights up at work. There are a lot of traditional lights around - and the big white lights won't be on when we run the show.

    It's on like donkey kong....

    Yeah I live in Baldivis. I'll share more closer to the time, but the location is near to the airport. Last couple of years they've had a fairly large static display.

    It's on like donkey kong....

    Well after a number of years, and never really being able to put on a decent display (My lease always expires around November) I was talking with work last year and they have allowed me to do a display at work. Soooooooo, 3500 lights have just arrived, and a controller to controller everything...

    Flat tree

    Thanks everyone. Will be using 12mm bullets but have seen some great ideas here. I'm almost inclined to try and push them to go for a 180 tree. But definitely food for thought for myself. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Flat tree

    Hiya, With a design I'm looking at doing, I have a query about flat trees and spacing. Do you keep the same spacing, say 3" for everything? Or do you have say 3" for the middle two, and then make them all parallel with those, meaning for the outer runs you could end up with some decent spacing...
