Santas Helper Posted November 17, 2011 Posted November 17, 2011 I'm not ready and have more to get done. If the weather holds out, I should be done with majority of my display. I have a bad habit of waiting till the last minute too. Nothing like a little pressure to get me fired up.How bout you?
Jim Hans Posted November 17, 2011 Posted November 17, 2011 As long as the squirrels/rabbits stop eating my cords I'm ready to go!
Jason Burge Posted November 17, 2011 Posted November 17, 2011 I've still got a long way to go but, somehow I always make it work.
wallleyes Posted November 17, 2011 Posted November 17, 2011 Iv`e been all setup up since late october.Amazing how slow the time goes when you get setup way early
vipzach Posted November 17, 2011 Posted November 17, 2011 I still need to get everything out of the attic, then replace some lights.

doug petschke Posted November 17, 2011 Posted November 17, 2011 It's been a battle for me too I have other chores that have to be done first I am about 60% though I didn't spend much time on new sequences this year
Arnoldc Posted November 17, 2011 Posted November 17, 2011 Things are about done on my end. I finished up lighting up my mini trees today, there are 6 of them 300 of red, blue and clear. 900 lights per tree, a total of 5600 LED lights.. I can say it is bright.. Saturday I will put out the mini trees, and put up my 2 mega trees and finish wiring everything up.. All hopes I will be done by 3pm, ready for full test runs! I can say I am very excited!Arnold Attached files

Dan C Posted November 18, 2011 Posted November 18, 2011 I'm ready, I do have some light sets that only half worked, but I was able to make do. I'm going to try and get those working. If I do, I will put those out when I get them working, if not, No big deal.
sabinlights Posted November 18, 2011 Posted November 18, 2011 To my minnesota friend hope the snow dont slow you down.
reitan_family Posted November 18, 2011 Posted November 18, 2011 I have two arches that need to be wired to the controllers and to wrap a small tree. Only have to work a half a day Saturday so I will be testing Saturday night or Sunday. I wish everyone luck
jeff bush Posted November 18, 2011 Posted November 18, 2011 Just tested and all is well and looks great! Hard work and a lot of patience from my wife does pay off :-)
pyromill Posted November 18, 2011 Posted November 18, 2011 I still have 90% of the display to put out... and about the same amount of sequences to get ready for this year's setup.. and about ohhh 80 channels yet to hookup.. behind the 8 ball ? me? right now yes.. come pressure time.. nope.. I agree nothing like some pressure to really get things rolling.. maybe why I work like a champ when doing a fireworks show.. under pressure..lights... i HAVE TO SEE my creation... so thus same pressure

The newer sequences I've done or converted to S3 will have "S3" in the folder name.Good Luck!
Santas Helper Posted November 18, 2011 Author Posted November 18, 2011 Glad to hear (in a bitter sweet way) that I'm not the only one gettin stuff done. Got my mega tree strands plugged in at the lights. Will roll out the controller stand tomorrow and plug them in there.Still have mini trees, fake bushes (long story on that one), plug up the mega tree pole and put out a couple new ideas stuff.The sequencing is pretty much done, just the labor part to get done. Lots of stuff to still get done but I feel good at the moment.And as mentioned by several here... good luck in the following days/week/month.
