Giancarlo’s Halloween Costume

Costume: Obi-Wan Kenobi (Jedi Lightsaber and Robe)

The lightsaber will be made out of wood carved on the lathe — see last week’s proposal for pictures of the draft (as I’m currently doing the final model).

The lightsaber will have a hole in the middle, so I can feed the wires through for the LED and the blade of the lightsaber will be a plastic tube with Styrofoam to diffuse and stick the LED NeoPixel.

For some reason the Tinkercad doesn’t showcase different colors (and blue in my case) but it previously worked in-person.

Arduino Techniques: Fade, Loop, ON/OFF button (maybe magnetic… for the force). Hopefully I can get my Gemma to work soon.
