Projects we like will be posted and promoted on the Halloween - Projects and Videos space and Social Media.

 

To be eligible to win a Gift, entrants must post Halloween themed project in the relevant section of the element14 community tagged with ShareTheScare, for example a project including Raspberry Pi is to be posted in the Raspberry Pi Projects space and carry the tag "ShareTheScare".

    One thing I did manage last year was to buy an ultrasonic fogger for some spooky pumpkin effects. Not my video, but you get the idea. www.youtube.com/watch

    I always intend to do a Halloween project - despite it not being quite as big in the UK as in the US. I never seem to think of it until it feel a bit too late though!

    Two things, this Halloween: The first, it is definitely time I repair the fog machine gifted as Project14 (if I remember) prize. It worked less than 5 minutes then stopped, just the time to demonstrate…

    Fred27  to throw out a suggestion: A Jack O Lattern can show your carving skills as well as your electronics ones. Always a popular in the US...

    clem57 do you know if anyone has used a CO2 laser to etch/carve a pumpkin before? I would change the linear XY normally associated with a 2D plotter to be more like yaw/pitch on skewers through the pumpkin.

    I don't think it will "carve" as the laser will just burn the pumpkin, it will engrave it with a nice burn mark. image, there are few examples out there like this one https://www.epiloglaser.com/resources/sample-club/engraving-pumpkins.htm. Definitely the best results I've seen have been with milling tools and a simple rotary axis with a stepper.

    Not that I can remember, but I would suggest giving it a spin if you can safely do this. I would be wary of small kids ...
