SERENITY - Dec 23 2005 |
My attempts at cleaning up the inside if the engine intake are not going well so I decide to prime it hoping that will make it easier to spot the mistakes |
What a mess. The primer spray can decides to spit out goop. The inside still looks terrible and the outside needs to be cleaned up |
Close up of how terrible the inside is |
The quick wiring for the LED circuit. A maze |
The modified LED board with some of the red LEDs pulled off |
Wiring added to the back |
The entire mess back |
The front |
It works. Sort of. |
When I was trying to prime the engine intake the spray can does something I have never seen it do before. It sprits out gook and sort of ruins the finish of the part. So I try and pull as much of it off as I can by hand. I do a second respray and hope that is OK.
I have left the lights as it can be said that it is not really needed for the finished model. If I do a lot of other stuff on the model I may return to do a bit more on it. When playing with the lights the spacing between the LEDs is too big and I can add 16 more LEDs to make it look smoother. I am not sure if this circuit board can handle the increased load. Hence my looking at the original board and the PIC programmer. |
