Had To Do It

[CalgaryPT]

Inspired by @Chicken lights post about beacons, I HAD to add a small one to my RC Lawn Mower. I guess I was baffled why all the ladies in the hood still weren't coming over to chat to me with this chick-magnet of a lawn mower. Then it occured to me—I need a beacon. Yeah...that will reel them in.

And for what it's worth, the patterns change when shorted to ground, not positive, on mine as well.

Love it! Is that what you had delivered by PA?

Yup. It was on sale. Added some of that stretchy film to wrap up all my metal stock in my materials rack and a few shop towels. Great delivery times.

Does it have a RC horn and audible backup warning?

 

[CalgaryPT]

LOL. You're daring me aren't you?

You’re in the club then.

My vote is for a flagpole

Are you a fan of Dr. Who? How about a voice that says "EXTERMINATE" as it runs around the yard.

For some reason this thread reminded me of Rodney Dangerfield's character in the movie Caddy Shack

Or "DANGER WILL ROBINSON, DANGER". The options on that idea is endless. I think a RC boom box is in-order here

I think the isolation is getting to us,,,

Yaa think so??? I spent Friday welding up a bird bath stand out of rebar. The horror, the horror.

In my case welding amounts to the electrical deposition of metal in a random pattern. She ain't pretty
