What didn't work:
2022 pixels failing
new black pixels failing
recycling solar lights (signalling issues)
What did work:
Electric winch on the megatree saved my butt! - 20/10 would recommend!
New kangaroos added a nice bit of fill
5px tall peace stakes as a garden edging - will be tripling...
I also have only just put out my first seeds, well my second seeds, my first seeds are still on their rolls in the garage after 2 years because 10cm spacing. I know my 12mm pixels seem to give me 3-4 seasons when they're good... 5-10 days when they're bad... A little disappointed that my first...
My last show finishes some time after 11, the lights auto shut off at 11.30, the time between is filled with blinking patterns...
In fact it's so well automated at this point, I'm often asleep and don't even know what it's doing lol
I totally need to get more lenses, I'd love to get it done in one pass but it doesn't quite cut it even with more power, whatever lense it came with just drops off too much in 2mm lol
Legit me too, never leave a laser unattended, and I got myself a nice 5kg CO2 extinguisher just for the laser...
All very good questions, it's a 900x600 (+/-) 100 watt CO² laser. I cut the 5mm corro at around 40mm/sec (tho don't quote me on that) at about 50% power in two passes with a 2mm step between passed - I have found this is the best way to get a clean front cut and an ok back cut, I cut the 12mm...
Hehe, I've been using Bunnings coro on my laser for 2 years now. Presently cutting out kangaroos from mine. Underneath are the snow flakes from last year.
I may or may not toss a little effort into halloween, no new decorations but I have the p10 in the window and loud speakers...
I've got a few repairs, the star on the mega tree took a dump last year, lost the last pixel on the first string, and one strip of the megatree was just a mess so...
Yep, that's a model, how many did you need? if you don't mind the hike to Caboolture I can print that for you, if you need too many it might just cost you a roll of filament :D
I like playing with lights, I hope that translates to enjoying Christmas more cos people look at you funny when you put up thousands of lights just about any other day of the year.
Seriously tho, I get the warm and fuzzies when kids hear bluey or the duck song and start screaming along to it or...
Heh, we built our house, it's still too new to put holes in.
Some arches, floods aimed at shrubs, or the walls behind the shrubs and outline the shrubs (I just put some floods in they give pretty decent bang for buck), you could probably gat away with doing some props on frames that go from...
