Electrical & More


It's A Big Day!!

 
Okay, let's take a look at the unaltered version of our Log Ride. Here is what it looks like, as released by Faller, at this point in construction:
 
 
It looks nice, but as you know, we have been on a "Construction Hiatus" while we did a little "plussing" of our own. We wanted to give our attraction a more realistic look. And so, after weeks of experimenting and soldering, here is what we have today:
 
 
While we are still working on the best voltage to use, we really like the way the lights bring the model to life. And now the other upramp you see in the background is also lit up and ready to go.
 
 
The lights make the climb to the top even more thrilling!
 
 
But the most exciting news is, we are finally back to construction! As you can see above, more decorations are being put together. These three poles will also gets lights inserted into them, though I have not figured out quite how I am going to do that because of the way they are constructed. Another fun challenge!
