Its Movember again! This is my 6th year doing it, and while my workmates have bailed on me this year I'm going all out again to help make a change to men all around the country! 1 in 8 men suffer from depression at any given time! I'll be that 1, 7 other of you can read this to make up the 8...

Good on ya Matt! I am also doing it again this year (4th consecutive year) Last year I think I raised around $250 and trying to achieve a similiar figure again this year! Movember is a great cause and brings about the importance of depression in Men, Heck I know as I suffer from it myself...

Thank you very much David! I love participating in this but by the end of the month I am glad to shave it all off hahaha! Thanks again! Cheers, Eric.

Hello friends, As we all know its movember time again! Last year with the help of some forum members here and a few other friends I managed to raise $250 for chairty, This year I am hoping to go that little bit further, remember every little bit helps and any donations over $2 are tax...

Thank you for the donation David! Greatly appreciated! And here is the updated pic!!!!!

Just bumping this up! So far I'm at $95 for the month and I have another donation coming which will put me close to $150! Don't forget over $2 is tax deductible! I will have a finishing pic up most likely tomorrow night or tuesday night, Gonna be something out of left field! Cheers!

I'm pretty tight when it comes to buying things, so I bought a heat gun for $20 from bunnings :D fast and slow air flow and it gets nice and hot for the raychem I use :D

I ended up doing a full wedge and going up the pole as well. I have finished it! Here are some pics and a video. Strings done Red Strings Blue Strings Both on together! And a video (excuse my lack of sequencing skill ;D ) testingtree.mov

Thanks Mike! Need opinions on whether people think I should just go from the top to bottom, or go into the centre pole like I have done in the above pic, Not quite sure whats gonna look better. The base will be flat on the ground.

Some of the guys that were on the chat have seen this, but thought I would post it up for all to see. I have made a small tree from some pvc pipe and some old heating element from my work, yes you read right heating element! I make heating elements at my work so grabbed some dud ones annealed...

G'day all, As we all know it is November so we are getting close to finalising all our blinky flashy displays, But also November is the month we like to call "Movember", This month I am participating in movember as I feel it is an important charity to support for mens health Australia wide. I...

I would agree with you all, however you don't know what the people are like around here. It'd either get knocked off or smashed, Which is why I was tending to go for a tree around my porch support pole instead! Cheers.

Gonna bump this up and say I'm still here :D This year I have acquired an old school olsen 595 + renc for a total 64 dimmable channels! I doubt to be using that many maybe a little over 1/2 that I would think! Cheers!

Love it! Great to see something different! Cheers for the post!

Thank you for the excellent detailed posts guys but as superman said the problem has been sorted, Power supply was the problem, looks like it was 5v but not dc doh! I found a 5v power supply and as soon as I hooked that up I got the heartbeat going! I do have an issue with 1 bank of leds not...
