Correct. I captured, skinned and tanned a family of Yeti. The tricky part is keeping the blood off of the white fur.

In all seriousness...my buddy ordered the fur online...I will see if I can locate the vendor he used.

Yeah, the fur I used is like this:

I like the fur! What color is the backing material?

Yeti fur, for example, may partially or completely obscure some of the lights if it mats down over them. Trilobyte makes a good point...when I was testing the fur with holes, I noticed that the fur could obscure one of the tiny RGB LEDs, say just the red, etc. Depending upon the color being made at...

The two coats I made were white, so the lights shine right through. Not sure how it would work with darker fur...we chose white specifically for the LEDs. My original plan was to make holes, but there were SO many LEDs, I would still be making the coats. Testing is the best way to know. I used a scr...

It was a bit warmer at night than if I created the weather myself...the LED Faux Fur coats worked well, but were rather warm, even well into the early morning hours.

Other than that, no complaints! Loved it all.

As a point of clarification, Amber Alerts are a part of State EAS plans, and it's primary focus is that of broadcasters (radio, TV and Cable). There are some active highway signs that are part of the system, and police are notified of an alert, but it is directly related to an EAS alert on broadcast...

I have that exact controller for a different led project I did a while back. I have ordered controllers and strips from 2 different vendors, and the one big difference I have discovered is that some strips are common anode, and some are common cathode. Meaning, on some strips, the black, or common w...

OK, the coats are in the hands of UPS. Nothing more to do. Here are a few additional photos of the coats...I only got one shot of the lining in the coat, but I added a "monogram" of sorts. https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-A39o2Ry8DTc/UDLGFJUPlqI/AAAAAAAAAXI/sAn8DCmNSi0/s1055/IMG_4625.JPG The batte...

I got my controller from these guys:

All of my stuff is 12v, but they may have some 5v stuff...not sure.

Great comments here...hopefully you can make one tough decision now, so your Burn will be enjoyable.
Drama is a terrible burden on a person's psyche. I have surgically removed it from my life over the last 18 years or so...and couldn't be happier. I hope you can do the same!

I'm a tech nerd, but dumb it down for the burn. iPhone 4 gets shut off, never turned on, and never leaves the RV. IPad MAY get used n RV to kill time. (risk is fun.) Laptop with 18,000 songs goes. Use acronis to image drive before I go, just in case. Plays music in RV. New waterproof Coleman camera,...

Three boxes ready to ship Monday to San Diego. Wow...it's really happening again.

I was more active on the eplaya last year, but i slept thru the meet and greet.

Hoping to make it this year. Planning to bring Fireball cinnamon whiskey, if I can pull it together.

I'm so easily distracted.

The dolphins and mice are smarter than they appear.

Do they have to be computations?

I don't know whether to freak out or congratulate you for posting the most tasteless image I have ever seen on the internet. Most tasteless image you have ever seen on the internet? You live under a Net Nanny rock or something? I could take it waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay down...

Truly terrible.


Look at all that moop.

Awesome. Plain old awesome.

Do you think the Penske repo men have tickets?

Or will Emilio estevez show up for the aliens in your trunk?

We all know the answer...it's the QUESTION we need....

did you remember your towel?

The page seems to have conflicting information. In one spot, it says: 1.)VERY IMPORTANT: Supply voltage for Controller is 5 Volts DC, power with included 12VDC Power Supply, do not exceed Wha? Is it 12 or 5 volts? Then in the Specifications chart it says: Operating Voltage: 5 Volts DC OK, so 5 volts...

I have had this...it's actually very good:

Full disclosure, an acquaintance of mine is part owner, but not why I liked it, and I am not involved, etc.

No idea if it's available in your area, or if you can order online.

Quick update...just got the coats back from my friend in NOLA. Linings are IN and they look awesome! I have some minor soldering to do for the remote controls, and they will head off to San Diego next week! I will try and post some photos of the lining, etc. this weekend. I am excited..................

Had this problem in 2010. 4 of us went, only one could get insurance. No one else's insurance would provide the "binder" on an RV. I think he had State Farm. I'm with GEICO (for a long time, and several cars, ATV, motorcycle...) and they told me no way on a rental RV. He had to do all of the driving...

Hey DustHand, I'm sorry if you have already posted this but can tell me where you got the LED strips? Many thanks Sure! I used these LEDs, about 4.4 rolls per coat http://www.superbrightleds.com/moreinfo/flexible-strips-and-bars/led-product/646/ And I bought this hookup wire to connect the strips. ...
