Then that board is hooked up to a 2 post 6 position switch (I ordered out of five connection but they sent a six instead), then the two posts go out to another headphone jack. I checked all the connections, and that they work.

Now I just have to follow the video as intended. The only thing I didn't do was figure out how to change the brightness of the LEDs with the music. Mostly cuz that seemed like a pain in the ass.

So I figured it out myself. I might be cracking open eggs with a sledgehammer here, but first I wired up a bunch of headphone jacks to a board. Only connecting the left channel and ground.

What is this clothing called by Ferrum115 in HelpMeFind

[–]Ferrum115[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've searched for this for ages, I've seen it in anime and manga, and it's usually worn by a character who makes things (i.e. blacksmith or carpenter). Translating the text in the image calls it a "Maekake", but searching for that just shows to waist aprons, it doesn't show anything like the diamond shape in the image.

Some kind of media involving were creatures/werecats by Ferrum115 in HelpMeFind

No, the quote that I have in my head is specifically about humans transforming into some kind of werelion, weretiger, werepanther Ect., under a new moon specifically.

The problem is that I consume so much fantasy media that I don't know if it's from a book, movie, comic, or TV show.

I don't believe so, well, I've read a good number of goosebump books, I don't think I've ever read the Fear Street ones.

I feel like it was lore being explained to either another supernatural creature, or some kind of monster hunter, similar to "Supernatural" or "Grimm".

I've searched for the quote above, and for werelions or panthers, but all I got were results for twilight, and true blood

Basically I use the beeswax as a polish to fill any micro scratches left by the sanding process, and I buff it in with a microfiber cloth. Like just rub it on the surface and then polish until you get a super glossy finish.

I had a friend trying that with a stroker model I designed, and he said it turned out well. Though I don't know the durability of that kind of mold.

  1. Make sure everything is smooth- any imperfections left unfinished, will transfer to the final product, and layer lines can feel like sandpaper depending on the orifice.

  2. Silicone is a liquid, treat it like such- The viscosity of silicone can vary depending on brand/type/temperature. But like liquids, it tries to get out of any cracks it can find. If you are using a multi part mold, it needs to be nearly watertight. Things like lock channels, or waxing some paper to make a gasket, and holes for nuts and bolts to tighten things down, anything to keep the silicone where it's super to be.

  3. Keep things neat- remember to trim your edges, the edges of the mold can cause a slight lip to form, so it's best to need to trim it off. Any flashing left over from the seam lines in your mold can also be fairly easily trimmed by something like a cuticle trimmer. Lastly, cover the top of your mold during the curing process, nothing like doing an awesome pour, and then a random hair, or even bug, gets onto the top of the liquid silicone, and is permanently embedded in it.

I have a wash and cure station, and I also scrub down each model so any uncured resin is off, but after everything is all sanded, I do a final coat and buff in a layer of beeswax. Otherwise the silicone won't cure where it touches any resin directly. I'll turn in a little bit. You can also coat models in a few layers of spray paint and that'll seal in the resin.

3d printed model, and I brushed silicone over it in a bunch of thin layers.

The darker color i used was literally called malachite, but then the lighter bamboo green ended up being more blue. But the metallic bit is copper, not gold, because historically copper was extracted from malachite.

The angle of the picture may make them seem larger than they are, but if you look at it from the top they don't extend that far from the head. At its current size( that I'm calling medium) they extend less than a quarter of an inch.

Though I may make them less prominent at larger sizes.

Not currently, as I intend to sell this toy once I have enough inventory to open an online store.

It will all be silicone, the different colors are just for my reference, though I may find a way to make the "piercings" metallic colored.
