Bjmca Posted October 4, 2014 Share Posted October 4, 2014 http://youtu.be/Ma_1ivo40ZM Here is a video of one of our shows for this year. We will run every Friday and Saturday in October. Over 550' of rope light makes up the 8 channel spiderweb. 64 regular LOR Channels, 3 sets of Cosmic Color Pixels, and 8 10 watt floodlights. I also acquired a single skytracker Xenon searchlight that runs behind the house, it shines a tight beam miles into the sky and can be seen for miles away. I run it from a diesel generator because it would make my electrical meter spin itself right off the house! This is my first year of pixels. I'd like to send a Thank You to James Morris for allowing access to his sequences. It still wasn't easy, but I was able to modify this one to work with my setup. I still have around 10 hours of sequencing in this, even copying and pasting some ideas from his work. My playlist this year includesTHX IntroHelp me hide a body (A Frozen Parody)Hello Zepp (Saw)DragulaSkrillex mixI wish I had more to run, but the pixels take me forever, without knowing how to use the macros yet. <iframe width="560" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/Ma_1ivo40ZM" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> P.S. I hope my video link works 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arw01 Posted October 4, 2014 Share Posted October 4, 2014 When you say Macros I assume you mean light show pro? are you over on the facebook users group? I'd like to see a little less blinky flashy in there. It looks like you have dumb rgb on the windows vs pixels? Alan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im not in the facebook users group, i dont spend much time on facebook. There are currently only 3 sets of CCP's running on the roofline, and mid section/deck. All other lights are a mix of leds, and incans, I have no dumb RGB. I'd like to eventually add all CCP's as my budget allows. There is another outbuilding to the right, not visible in the video. It also has a spider and web on the roof, and windows and corners done. The blinky, flashy is well suited to this music. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bjmca Posted November 7, 2014 Author Share Posted November 7, 2014 I would love to see how you built the spider web, looking at doing something similar next Halloween.The main beams are 7/16 rope, the cross webs are 1/4" rope. Once i measured out the spacing I drove 6 concrete equally spaced concrete pins at an angle to hold the bottom of the web. Attach the metal rings to a ratchet strap at the top and string the mains to the ground (the ratchet strap is used later to tension the web). Then I zip tied all the cross webbing at 1' spacing to the bottom. The rope lighting was attached after the web was together and tight. I have to take the lights off for storage.
