I've used partsexpress.com for a number of projects and have always been happy with the price/service. ... From: Technical_Insanity@yahoogroups.com ...
That was my first thought too. You could even use a device like this to blow huge smoke rings. like making a massive Airzooka and filling it with fog....
Memory jog please... :) I seem to recall someone posted a link to a page that detailed the steps on how to hack one of those $5.00 mp3 players to be triggered ...
If you have a certain position that the ToTs will be in, the pumping fog a little in front of the manniquin might work better. Wouldn't be disrupted by moving...
I don't think you will need to if you use an L bracket like you said. since you are only going 180 degrees, there should be a way to mount the bracket so that...
Still have that one in my Gmail for later this year: http://halloween-o-fest.com/mp3how-to.htm ... -- -Sean Overton Chicago, Illinois USA [Non-text portions of...
Or if it is a problem, just constrain the movement to 1 - 179 degrees to avoid a deadlocked state. I doubt 2 degrees would change the effect any. ... --...
Vern - There are pictures of the physical how-to at my site - http://halloween-o-fest.com/mp3how-TO.htm. Per suggestions from this group I successfully changed...
Let us know what you end up doing Vern. I'll be curious to see if you figure this out as I'm going to be using this in 2008 (yes, I'm already planning). ... ...
... A friend of mine saw these: http://www.rcaaudiovideo.com/en-US/Downloads.html?ProductID=emusic1 at Circuit City for $5.00 and bought a couple for grins....

I need a triggerable single track player for cheap. I like the $5 mp3 players, but the button interface "Hold button 3 for 3 seconds" etc is so lame.... I...
That sounds great. I don't have the time right now to order and hack one. But, if you get one, let us know how it turns out. Very interested in the card...
... heh. nope. :) Pretty bland, but just a warning to you that if you buy a camera and take some pics using the supplied media and then return the camera, the...
... You could use a "rack and pinion" design to turn the prop: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rack_and_pinion could be made from wood... or you could use a loop...
lol. The pics I'm taking with my cameras would either bore a prop builder to death or make him wonder why I'm building my props out of the materials I am when...
An awful lot of these small players--both cheap and pricey--have "multipurpose" buttons, where the buttons do something different depending on how long they're...
Yeah, I like this very much. I saw the same idea used on DVDs in the Lowe's traveling safety show. They have the show on a track followed by a lot of screen...
Jeez, I went to all the trouble of putting the proper Greek lower-case mu in my post, and darned ol' Yahoo! stripped it right back out again!! And the stuff I...
Yeah, the same thought occurred to me when I was writing it out. You COULD do just one track... if you wanted ultra-hi-fidelity 320kbps silence! ;>D I don't...
... FWIW, I never see HTML formatted mail. I force all inbound mail to display as ASCII. Its safer (since HTML mail can embed nasty stuff) and IMHO easier to...
Well, Yahoo! takes it upon themselves to convert everything to text, then paste it back into THEIR HTML format, with an advertising bar down the right side,...
I fooled around with one of these to be controlled via a relay and a prop-1, but could never get it to work perfectly, and finally, after the many many hours...
Dok, I and others had the same problem with getting the changes to stick. I will repost what I did to make it work: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I had...
Why, that's so crazy... it just might work! ;>) --Dok _____ From: Technical_Insanity@yahoogroups.com [mailto:Technical_Insanity@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of...
