This is the end which we exposed roughly 20cm's worth of internal wiring on earlier.
Now that we have one end of our main cable connected we can connect the other end. Work through the remaining wires, but this time just connecting one unique wire from the buttons to one wire from the main cable whilst keeping your records up to date. So for my purple ground wires, I have recorded that I connected them to the purple wire in the main cable. There is also a copy I have filled in for my records to show you an example of what a completed sheet should look like. You'll see a blank copy above for you to use (you can either screenshot/photograph it with your phone and fill it in on device or print it). To make it easier to follow I created a sheet (you'll find it above) which you can use to record which wire is connected to which in the main cable. I chose purple again to help follow things through. The first bundle of wires we need to connect are the ground wires from the buttons (for me this is the purple wires I used) and a wire from the main cable length. You can use either a similar type of connector, or solder the wires together if you prefer. This will make it very easy for me to re-use the cables and buttons in another project in the future.
Please take a look at the images above for the print orientations I have the designed the parts to be printed at.Īs this is a very seasonal project I will use plastic 'Wago' connectors to join my wire up in this step of the project. The PLA pumpkins came out better because they were less stringy.īrims were used for the two main sides and the stem requires neither a brim or supports. Two of them were printed in PLA and one in PETG (just because that it what I had to hand). I used a speedy 0.3mm layer height for the pumpkins as they will be seen from afar and in low light conditions. The base is printed with supports - it is the only part which requires them. I have chosen to print two colours of pumpkins, one cream colour and two orange ones - each with green stems. Each of your three pumpkin sets requires a base, left hand and right hand side, and stem/top. We can start by 3D printing three sets of parts for the Pumpkins. Just ensure that it you are going to rear project onto the pumpkins as show in this project that your material for the pumpkins is translucent enough. You can off course make the pumpkins and control panel from any other suitable materials if you don’t have a 3D printer.
So you could use a projector you already own or use this as an excuse to buy one!) :)Īll the files for the 3D printed components can be found on my Thingiverse page: We won’t be damaging them in anyway for this project.
