Re: Classic MPC C-3PO and R2-D2 uber detail build


SUCCESS!!!  YUREKA!!!  FINALLY!!!!!!!!   I got my 4060 chips today in the mail and immediately began to mess with them.  Using Grendals awesome LED lighting tutorial as a guide.  You do some amazing work John... thanks guy... your vids are really informative... you can check it out here:

 

Lighting Tutorial: 4060 Pro's and Con's

 

I was finally able to get the lighting circuit to do what I wanted it to do (well as close as I could get to it anyway) and I made one set from one chip (the 3 logic and 2 mood lights) working.  So now all I gotta do is transfer the entire thing to a perf board twice and I should have the entire lighting set up and ready to run!  So without further ado, here's the video of the working circuit I got actually working!

Oh and Tom, I definately plan on getting a bag of chips and a bag of leds from ya soon... just have been really strapped lately.  If any of you out there want to give this kinda thing a try, I highly suggest getting a bag of chips and Leds from ModelManTom... You can get his stuff here:

OK... now things should really start moving along.  This has been driving me absolutely CRAZY trying to get this to work and I would like to thank both JOhn and Tom for all your advice and help in trying to get this circuit of mine to work.  Now that it does, I can finally move forward!  More to come!
