Seriously though there cool as heck but i reckon with all the g forces and shiz going through a spinning weopon on each hit that it wouldnt survive. _________________ Andrew Welch, Team Unconventional Robotics

you would want to use something like a water clear urithane
resin would be too brittle (well most of them anyway)
I am thinking about making one for a motorbike (and perhaps a car lol i can see some of them making the ole telstar look nifty as)
Probbly go with something a little different, IE a 16F877A and a bunch of transistors but that'd be about it. not all those other chips on the way down.
can make the whole thing with bits from jaycar then. (and hopefully a dern sight smaller) say glen you still got all them that sot23 FETS ;->
(you can only power 20 LED's from the PIC, well 20 *on* at any time. blast) _________________ Mechanical engineers build weapons, civil engineers build targets
