LEDs will run at voltage without resistors IF you know what voltage they take
Yes they will, but you'll still be creating the potential for very rapid failure. The resistor in an LED circuit is not for voltage regulation, but for current limiting. If you feed an LED the proper forward voltage from a non-limited current source, it's going to fail. Sometimes quite spectacularly.

Granted, running one off a pair of relatively low current AA batteries probably isn't going to cause any problems, but there's still a right way and a wrong way to approach the creation of an electrical circuit. It doesn't take very long for even a simple LED to get uncomfortably hot, which usually happens right before the aforementioned spectacular failure.


Eagerly awaiting the new pieces, robo - thanks again for all the work you've put into this. :)

Re: robo3687's Iron Man 2 Pep Files - foot in first post-details last page

ei does anyone know what to use to carve the lines on bondo?

@robo yey i've been waiting for the missing pieces! Good work again robo :) keep it up
 
Re: robo3687's Iron Man 2 Pep Files - foot in first post-details last page

use a dremel tool with a snake attachment for the fine detail. i also suggest using fine line auto tape to keep a straight line.
 
Re: robo3687's Iron Man 2 Pep Files - foot in first post-details last page

and dont set your dremmel on high as you could lose controll and carve everything up pretty nasty lol

i've used cutting wheels on low for smaller lines if that helps at all

Re: robo3687's Iron Man 2 Pep Files - foot in first post-details last page

You can also pick up a good set of needle files to get some nice detail on your helmet. They are relatively inexpensive.

Here are a couple of helmet photos I have gathered over time, hope they help!:)

i dont want to seem like a complete jerk - but a google search for "ironman helm" and click images gave me this

ironman helm - Google Search

TONS of ref pics and all on the first page....
 
Re: robo3687's Iron Man 2 Pep Files - foot in first post-details last page

would you happen to know how to add hinges onto the helmet to make the face plate move up and down. and which hinges work best? thanks. :confused

@Frog
Thank u man! now I can continue with the project! =D
 
Re: robo3687's Iron Man 2 Pep Files - foot in first post-details last page

@ironmanpreston:

im considering some silding door rollers for mine and an actuator of some sort - havent really decided
 
Re: robo3687's Iron Man 2 Pep Files - foot in first post-details last page

hey guys at the very least you should all have a neck seal to play with by the end of today (thats the end of australia's today...so around 10 hours...lol)

Thanks for all your hard work Robo!:)
 
Re: robo3687's Iron Man 2 Pep Files - foot in first post-details last page

A new neck.... awesome...
Just a few more pieces to go and your there. Good Job Robo, I don't even know if Dancin Fool resumed his MK III Model since his wedding. You will be one of the few whom finished modeling an entire suit!

Can't Wait!

a guy on SIWDAT has proto'd some hinges based on the hinges from a tacklebox with custom shaping to accomodate the angles of the helmet.

Can you post a link, I think I may scrap the work I have done on hinges thus far...
