Skull and Lights

Skull

Eyes

The two 1" acrylic balls were drilled to about half their depth so that the LEDs would just fit in. Two LEDs were then wired up with a 470 Ohm resister and covered in heatshrink. The two wires were spliced together and connected to a length of two core wire.

After testing, the LEDs were secured with dab of hot melt glue. The balls were then secured to a 'Bucky' skull from 'The Anatomical Chart Company'

Prototype haunted house light unit. 3 Ultrabright LEDs are mounted to a small piece of strip board, along with 3 470 Ohm dropper resisters to be able to run from 12V. Connection is via a length of 2 core flexible 'bell wire' . The board is secured in a small PVC pipe end cap using hot melt adhesive. I will probably use bottle caps when I make a few more as they will be lighter and smaller.  This one is green and acts as small spot.
