Ebuechner Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 I feel as though everything is going smooth so I recorded the simulation of my Star Wars sequence and put it on YouTube still may have a little tweaking to do 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B.Y.R.G. Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 Looks great....nice job! Thanks for sharing as I'm getting sick of watching my own simulations and ready for the real thing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jrock_at_rons Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 Looks great Ed. Can't wait to see it in person again this year (my son will be stoked to hear Star Wars). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know we talked about that last year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrock_at_rons Posted October 12, 2016 Share Posted October 12, 2016 I just finished soldering the final three last night! I'm building a frame so they will be stacked on top of one-another... 5 - 4 - 3 - 2 - 1 I cleaned out 3 Menards of them during their clearance sale last year. I'll post pics as I finish assembling it. Essentially I'm hoping to have a 10' tall mega-tree made out of 15 smaller 3' mini-trees. I'm not sure where we left off, but with three kids, soccer, new boat, etc. I didn't have the time/patience to get into pixels this year. I'll definitely have some for 2017 though (so I'll be messaging once the new year starts). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just so you know I've been a little disappointed in the trees after a couple of years they've turned really yellow. Watch out for pixels that's a slippery slope 12501 channels this year and I'm already planning next year. I have a tote filled with pixels and strips that I bought on sale for future expansion I'm not sure how many but I think it weighs about 75 pounds.

That's not what I want to hear! I'm not sure if I have time to change up the game plan this year, so I might have to go with them for now. How yellow do they get? I'm sure I'll be in contact about the pixels. I want to start small (and early) in the spring to see where it takes me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sent you a PM but then I decided to put it here as well so other people could see here's a link to a photo with a comparison. https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BwDgEpqsgNhfOXkxbm10OVR0U2c/view?usp=drivesdk. I may almost be to embarrassed to put them out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
