Maybe look into using an OLED and a Arduino Pro-Mini or something.. can control all your leds/lights.. as well the TEXT
I have looked into doing just that, but problem is the display is a bit smaller than what is out there. As far as the pro mini, I was trying to keep the cost down. LEDs are on a delay after the button push.
Since the display is odd, I could make a led matrix display using micro leds and a pro mini. That way it can be changed with text. Good idea! Little more r&d, but may be worthwhile.
Did you brush paint the silver finish or use a spray can?
Spray paint. It doesn't look that great in those pics above, mainly due to me being in a hurry when I painted them. It started raining so touching wet paint is a no no and ruins the finish. smh
I have a question for all of you.
What would you all prefer?
A 3d printed kit(print lines and all)/wo electronics?
A 3d printed kit(print lines and all)/w electronics?
A resin kit/wo electronics?
A resin kit/w electronics?
A metal kit/wo electronics?
A metal kit/w electronics?
A finished 3d printed item?
A finished resin item?
A finished cast metal item?
Now, I ask all these questions to see what everyone might want. I love kit versions, but that's my preference. Love to hear what you all think.
