To do
- Insert remaining LEDs in tube along bottom.
- Fix rest of LED strip(s) onto crinoline.
- Microcontrollers and wiring.
- Figure out how much power is needed and battery holders.
- Apply waterproofing lacquer on circles and panel.
- Want side-emitting LEDs along the bottom.
- Diameter of crinoline bottom hoop is 80 cm. Need to add an extra 100+cm of arc length of black paneling and tulle paneling to inner layers.
- Replace strip along bottom with side-emitting LEDs?
LED count
- 240 - circles (all used except one)
- 64 - 8x8 panel.
- 23 - strip 1.
- 23 - strip 2.
Total: 350 LEDs.
Not mounted:
- 17 - strip 3.
- 1 - single LED center from circle pack.
Timeline
2019-11-06 - 2019-11-11
Bought:
- 8x8 cm WS2812 LED panel
- 5m, 30 LEDs/m, IP67, black LED pixel strip
- 241 LEDs, rings of varying sizes from 3 to 17 cm
- [x2] 2-hoop crinolines to attach LEDs to
- 88 cm black skirt
Old sketches:
2019-11-12 - 2019-11-24
- Layout of LEDs, waiting for items to arrive.
- Tested out LEDs under layers and on crinoline.
2019-11-25
- Took apart seams of inner layers of black skirt to add extra panels to fit over crinoline.
2019-11-26
- Measured skirt on top of crinoline. Extra panel with bottom arc length of 100+cm.
- Decided to go with 6 strips of 23 LEDs each. Cut one strip.
2019-12-03 - 2019-12-05
- Tested out LED rings. One wire was detached so had to be soldered on.
2019-12-06
- Punched holes in crinoline, used zip ties to attach first LED strip.
- Took apart LED circles and tested FastLED programs.
- Set up LED circles, one strip, and panel together on crinoline and used zip ties to place everything but the panel on crinoline.
- Ran FastLED programs on everything together.
- Pictures posted by others to Facebook, RevSpace kiekjes, Twitter.
2019-12-20
- Rearranged LED circles, mounted some back on with velcro. Mounted panel with velcro.
- Cut two more strips. Attached wires to one and mounted it horizontally at an angle.
2019-12-22
- Folded up bottom hem and put velcro strips all across to partially make a tube along bottom.
2019-12-24
- Ordered LED connectors (20 pairs, 3-pin).
2019-12-25
- Measured and cut panel for black layer of skirt.
2020-01-10
- Used fabric glue along bottom hem tube, in between velcro strips.
- Attached wires to more LED strips.
