Christmas Tree for those 50 LED Pixel Strings
CJMJ
Posts: 225
@"Ken Gracey" I missed the 25th but this might come in handy for next Christmas. This is a 3D frame for mounting those 50 LED Pixel strings. The .zip file contains the .stl file, printer settings, a channel guide for how I ran my string, a glimpse at my "locking" system and some code on how I lit the tree. Insert the LED from the back until the groove on the LED lines up with the frame then turn about 1/8 of a turn clockwise and it is locked into the frame. The input is at the bottom of the tree and the output is at the top. You can run yours differently. Just create a channel guide for your code.!
@JonnyMac I shamelessly hacked your 04_rgbx_pixel_demo.spin2 code and added a "J" option with supporting cjmj_colors() method. I also changed the data pin from 48 to 16 and I didn't add any comments. I beg your forgiveness! I'll make it up to you with my Nextion HMI interface. Oh and BTW, thank you for all your help and your presentations.
Merry Christmas and enjoy!
P.S. If you turn the tree on its side, it makes a nice directional indicator!!!

Nicely done, Carroll.
Added 3 more lighting modes. Enjoy!
I just realized I never provided a picture of the latching system. Latches with a height of 2.4mm.
Enjoy!
