Well done.

Something that I don't think I could do, and not really something I'd bother doing due to my distance from the road.

The only issue with your video to me was the lack of metric measurements. :D :D :D

I love them.
I'm tempted to see how well I can make a servo controller work with xLights. Likely DMX approach with an Arduino or something.

Far more character in these than coro singing faces, and much more fun to build!

Great props and great video!
Now who's going to take it to the next level and make it interactive/live?!

Everytime I see those bulbs, I have to drop my lower servo. (a.k.a, smile!)
We (my partner in crime and I) loved the write up. Great stuff.
Thanks!
