sonoma Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 (edited) How close do you have the spots to the house? They are bright on the brick I was unable to achieve that on red brick this year. PS great job!!!! Edited January 29, 2016 by sonoma Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dink911 Posted January 29, 2016 Author Share Posted January 29, 2016 (edited) Thank you for all the kind words. Sonoma: They are about 2-3 feet from wall. Also these are rgb rectangle nodes (10) inside harbor freight housing. I am adding 10 more 10w floods for this year they will point from roof down. Trying to make the house glow Thanks Steven G Edited January 30, 2016 by dink911 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
worksopian Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 Just curious as to what spacing you have between pixels on your pixel tree? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cdanna77 Posted January 29, 2016 Share Posted January 29, 2016 (edited) Great job. Can't wait to see next years. I was thinking of building those same spots last year. Now you have me thinking about it again.Also. Can you give more details on how you built the Coro cross. Thanks.

Cross is 4 feet by 4 feet Coro Cross was built using two 4ft X 4ft sheets of Coro (there was enuff to make sides if you cut just right) Black coro for the back and inside to divide the two sections and white for top and outsides 12 inch cross (8 inch inside / 4 inch outside) 3 inch sides Used 28 rectangle RGB nodes for inside and 32? for outside, don't remember exactly. i wish I would have made a video or at least pictures Built using same method as Coro Snowflakes are built (great product by the way) This was a big hit with people even had a few people ask me if I could build them one (then had to explain the hardware and software commitment to run it) To mount I left 2 inches of black coro on inside corners of cross and used a big washer and screw (see attached image) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mega Arch Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 Very nice. Awesome in fact. I think you are telling a big whopper though - no way this is a first year display. Killing me it's so good..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
