gmac Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 That does look cool...But with my luck the temp would decide to go to 80 the next day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George Simmons Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 Temps in the 80's isn't a problem we have to spend much time worrying about during that time of year. That looks like a very cool idea. Now what's needed is to figure a way to get a string of LED lights in there also... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TGabriel Posted September 29, 2012 Share Posted September 29, 2012 Look cool alright and it will be cool in the house when someone pick one up and throw it through your window. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scubado Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 (edited) I have done the leds in ice. Filled a large garbage can full of water during a week long cold spell. Sank some some leds in it with silicon protecting the leads and hooked it up to a battery pack( didn't want to fry something- pre LOR days). It looks awesome. RGB ribbon in a tube would totally rock!It will take some time to eventually melt, especially on the North side of a house. Buckets also work.

cenote Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 Next question, who has a really BIG freezer I can borrow. Thinking maybe a "life size" snowman made of ice filled with RGB's... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

timmydatoolman Posted October 1, 2012 Share Posted October 1, 2012 Now what's needed is to figure a way to get a string of LED lights in there also...I'm thinking a 2 inch spade bit from the bottom would leave a good size hole to stick some pixels in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
