I found a red cap that I'll use instead of the diffuser,
for the red LED.
The Back Plate I thought was too long, so I then trimmed it down and cut angles onto the
edges, as per my sketches I made from watching ANH film, pausing it and zooming
in on it, this plate needs to be fixed
and bonded into place.
Spent a lunchtime soldering up some new wire for the LED, switch & battery holder.
I got to test my handywork…… Nothing! What the……. :(
Thankfully or not, it wasn't my workmanship, but the N Size
battery holder contact?? The spring cripped contact wasn't making a circuit,
though you could see that it was!?!?!
And
now my Motivator is Bad, lol.
Left picture was with the camera flash, the right picture without camera flash lol.
Once I've prepped the dome cone for primer and if time,
white and red pie panels…….no, I'm getting ahead of myself, not enough time
before the weekend's display event……
So for now, I'll just fit the Motivator into his Pie Hole
:).
