Popular Post Scrollshrimp Posted October 15, 2022 Popular Post Report Share Posted October 15, 2022 (edited) Made this Bat for Halloween earlier today. The pattern is courtesy of Scrollsaw Workshop. I then drilled 2 small holes and added 2 red LED's for the eyes. A small 3V watch battery powers them. Alan. May have posted this in the wrong section, apologies.

Karl S Posted October 15, 2022 Report Share Posted October 15, 2022 Do you have more information as to where to get the L.E.D's? I am not familiar with the L.E.D Lamps. OCtoolguy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlie E Posted October 16, 2022 Report Share Posted October 16, 2022 I love it. I'd like to know where to get the lights also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrollshrimp Posted October 16, 2022 Author Report Share Posted October 16, 2022 Thanks for the kind comments, I purchased the LED's (or Light Emitting Diodes) to give them their correct name from Amazon. They are very cheap to buy and come in various colours. The ones I used were 5mm but other sizes are available. The LED has 2 legs, the longer one is the positive and the shorter one is the negative connection. I soldered the 2 positive legs together and the 2 negative legs together, then simply connected a 3V watch battery to power them. I have included a picture of some green and white LED's. I hope this helps, Alan. bobscroll and ChelCass 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
