Sorry for second post I didn't want to include anything other than the code In the previous post for cut and paste purposes if they're new to it (like I was) it can be overwhelming if you have no former training or education in it. The 12 LED rings power up and off and I powered it by USB with a 18V milwaukee tool battery with an adapter

My suit pics from Comic Con but it's still a work in progress

I joined back in May with the goal of building my first pred. Almost everyday after work I slaved at it until Sept. for Comic Con here in Tucson, AZ. to have it ready. I finished runner up in the advanced group and look forward to attending other conventions around the country and meeting clans.
