I took 3 hours today to flesh out this distraction.

It's a happy running distraction- bet off of @alifeeney 's drawing. Making it in sections definitely helps.

I think I could make a few more. I wanna blink em so the wings flap. I also feel like there are some areas an details that could be improved.

I think a mirrored pattern would be good to easily flip the design around while making it.

I could bend this whole thing in clear, an then coat it in pink phosphor later :) I'm glad this one stands.

Some photos from yesterday sign day!
It's a barn raising to get the sign up- everyone comes together to help lift the structure and massive words on raceways. Alicia Eggert welds up the frames herself and leads everyone.

Jason Mishou our electrical engineer collaborator is blowing us away with all his methods and tools. Would love to take a class with him at TXRX labs in Houston.
Show opens tomorrow!

YAAAY! I finally made one-

the "flat sun"- or as @alifeeney calls it "Neon Waffle"

Yes, its pretty sloppy- I really want a perfect one, but the color gradient is really nice and the coated cobalt blue is even neater than I expected.

I am super excited! I want to make a 3D, spherical version. I like how one side is "eclipsed".

Its so dense and bright. Kind of unmountable :)
