First Coro Project Done.
Well, today I recieved my Tracer Jr. and went promptly to work tracing my characters for the display on my new coroplast. They look great! Now it’s on to installing the lights. I finished Suzy Snowflake today. I spent the better part of today working on her. She’s 750 lights strong. punching 750 holes in a Coroplast board earned me a nasty blister on my right thumb. I’ll need to come up with a different way to punch those holes. I added a new page on the website outlining the progress of my Coroplast.
Other new things that are happening… New Purchases! I bought a Galvanized pole for the Mega-tree and set it up just to see how it looks. Wow! That tree is going to be huge! And also bought 250 feet of 16-2 Lamp wire. So my expendature of extension cords this year should be way down!
