Thread: Singing Pumpkins using Servos

Tweet

I posted my progress in the How To section, but I am so proud of how these (I can't believe I was able to make them work), I wanted to show them off.

If you want to know how I built them click here Singing Pumpkins using servos.

and good job!

They look so good.On my list for next year.I have never worked with servo's or programming so that does scare me a bit.

Once you get the swing of it, servo's are easy. Now Pneumatics...That scares me. I'm always afraid I'll bust myself in the face and knock my teeth out.

I'll take servos any day.

I'm so excited.

My friend azdude hooked me up with these tiny little PC boards that let you control the LED 'eyes' using the servo controller that work the same way the servo motors do. He just launched his website and is selling them at Animated Prop Systems - Lighting and Audio Products for Creative Prop Builders.

I'm getting two more sets of eyes for each of my 3 axis skulls. I might get the multicolored eyes to make things interesting.

Wow... fantastic job. I guess I'll have to add this to my ever growing list of things I must build!

Someone already made pumpkins just like mine.

I'm so proud.

Here is a photo of the LED "eyes" board that I made for Dionicia and am now offering on my website.


I also have another one that uses RGB LEDs so you can change the color to whatever you want.
