How far along are you?

Me?

Still have 8 SSR PCBs to mount into protective casings (out of 16)
Still have to complete song number 5 and start and finish song 6
Still have to make/buy extension cords
Still have to make Cat 5 cables for SSRs from 595
Still have to start stringing up lights
Still have to convince my wife this is a good idea (neighbors are convinced though)

relax, you are farther along than me :)
I still have 4 more enclosures, and no sequencing done, and i ordered my chasers yesterday, and haven't made a mega tree before, but i have a $500 dollar bill from ActionLighting for mega tree parts. I'm just waiting until 11PM on Halloween so i can start tearing all that down and putting up Christmas lights!

After reading these posts - I think im in pretty good standing.
I still need to :

Buy 12 50' extension cords BOUGHT!
solder a new antenna wire on my tunecast
Finish 7 ssr boards. DONE
finish sequencing my final song that's about 1/3 done.
And shut my power off so I can connect my sub panel to my main electrical panel.

All I have left to do is enclose my ssr's which will be done as I set out the lights. I have 2 songs that are about half sequenced and all the others are done. I have my halo made for my maple tree and my hanging block for my 20' flagpole to make my mega tree. I have a couple hours of painting to do on my santa and deer picture. and then I have my outlet chain to hook to my main box. I have a cherry picker set up for this weekend to get all the HIGH stuff done and next week on vacation to get the rest done. I think I have enough lights, but if not they are everywhere now.

I'm ready! (I think :lol: )


I'm going to start on setting up my Mega Tree this weekend. My two 6' trees the next weekend. The weekend after that, starts my week off I put in for vaction to complete my setup. Hope to 'flip the switch' day after Thanksgiving.

Wish me luck on my first display!
