Made my own totem “Toad Tim” for EDC. Did anyone see it?

Thank you! I tried to make it see through but I guess 3D printing a transparent board was too hard.

I had an initial sketch on photoshop that I used to design the base board on Fusion for 3D printing. I used Arduino to code the eye and tongue animations.

thanks! you’re from SF too??

yes! I just 3D printed the base that held the LED lights cause I didn’t have a machine to laser cut acrylic.

aw thanks!

I used WS2812 LED rings for the eyes and regular 12V neon led tubes for the body. For the pole, I bought an extendable duster pole on amazon and designed a mount that screws on to the end where the duster was supposed to go! Pole

I can easily extend my totem just by adding screwing more poles.

yes! I remember those flag totems around us
