finishlast Posted October 11, 2014 Posted October 11, 2014 (edited) Welcome HO-HO-Home After last year's carousel insanity I was happy to see less LED options in 10245 Santas Workshop, so here it is, the 2014 edition of finishlast christmas... Unfortunatelly the toy machine seems to be broken... Here is the blinking layout in action. I'll update this post when I put the whole diorama together later in december, it should fit somewhere in here at least I hope so.. Merry Christmas (soon) Edited October 12, 2014 by finishlast Quote
lightningtiger Posted October 11, 2014 Posted October 11, 2014 The best part is that one special reindeer with a red nose......Brick On 'finshlast' ! Quote
finishlast Posted October 12, 2014 Author Posted October 12, 2014 (edited) Yeah, there should be one spare trans red 1x1 in th box included. But anyways, I couldn't wait till december so I put everything together for a quick test. I just found out the first booth didn't have light, so I fixed the loose wire. Damn you wires! I need a 1,8meter woodboard. It's getting way too long... And here is the diorama in all it's blinking beauty... I didn't put in all details and mini-figs, I have to save something for Christmas ;) Edited April 2, 2017 by finishlast Quote
Bookworm Posted October 12, 2014 Posted October 12, 2014 Very cool! Lighting the models really adds to the festive spirit and atmosphere of the village. I would also like to know how you did the lights. Quote
finishlast Posted October 12, 2014 Author Posted October 12, 2014 (edited) I used 2 different leds. For the candle effect in the sleigh I used - well - led candles which I bought in one of these 1 € shops. I think it was 4 candles for 1€. The the other lights are 0805 smd leds. http://www.led1.de/s...d-bauform-0805/ I used a 6 channel chasing light. Channel 1-4 for the roof, channel 5 for Rudolphs nose and 6 for the toy machine. I had it flying around for over a year, so I used it for this set. In the carousel I made a 10 channel one by myself. When you get older you get lazy ;) http://www.conrad.de...ef=searchDetail All powered with a Fujitsu 19v powersupply. You have to wire them, just put double sided tape on a metal plate, put the smd led on it and wire the cables, I put some extra superglue on the wires and the led for stability reasons. I used a 1mm drill to drill the holes. If you want to know how I did the carousel thing just click the link in my signature. Edited October 12, 2014 by finishlast Quote
CityBuilder Posted October 17, 2014 Posted October 17, 2014 The lighting is very beautiful, great work. Quote
Jay66 Posted August 17, 2018 Posted August 17, 2018 Just found this - love it - and I am sharing it with my electrician (husband) because the lighting is exactly what I want! Quote
