A Status Update

I’ve been very quiet on the blogging front, words have never been my forte. But, that’s not to say that progress hasn’t been made. Here’s a preview of what has been done so far. Just pictures and a small bit of text.

Some controllers have been built. Here are two – the Falcon F16V4, and the mega-tree PixelBone 48 (half built)

A bunch of pixels and pigtails were delivered

4000 pixels, 1500 strip LEDs and a heap of cabling!

There was also some serious gardening done, including removing a bush
