I'm putting blue LEDs in the back of each, then painting the "casing" so that it glows at the front half. Hopefully I will get that part done this week.

I ran 2 AA in series and all six LEDs in paralel. Works great!

Unfortunately I will be unable to attend MC3. The only other event I can make this year will be Whitecaps on August 1. We need Boss there, are you going to be done?

Hey Aaron, that looks awesome. I can't wait to see the COMPLETED project in person.
It's always better to have it and not need it, than to need it and not have it.
