Me wearing it. I'm small so the neck bunches up a lot more than it should. But it will bunch up a bit with anyone.

Fire Shiba Inu head done.
Will be out as a head only item that you can add more money to, to get a tail and gloves.
The starting price will be 750 USD.

This is the second head I have ever made. So there ARE errors here and there. But they are not that bad.
Will be put up at 6pm PST.

I finally got the spoons to work on the head again. Fixed the eyebrow and cheek where it was badly balding. Bad quality fur (red) was shaved a bit too close on and brushed and it balded.

But now. You can hardly tell what side is balded / was fixed lol

This will be for sale soon.

16 rolls. 300 LEDs per roll.
Cut in half for 32 strips of 150.

These are all going on the ceiling to be controlled by a single custom controller.

Soon!

Going to MFF this weekend?

Keep an eye out for Zetta in 1 of 3 styles of harness.

Stop him for a hug!
Ask questions!
Check out the gear!

Ask him about the (soon to be) 4800 LEDs on his living room ceiling that will run off the same hardware he is carrying around!

Worried about the bag getting flagged so made a little demo box using the original hand-assembled PCB and the silicone seal test LED strip

Bag: through no issue
Zetta: flagged for additional pat down screening

TSA agent at the bins:
"What's that? Oh that's cool."

Zetta:
😰

Leash!

Just in time for walk time!

Little 4 way USB-C cable inside a pack of rechargeable AA and AAA batteries at Costco.
It can charge 3 of my boxes at once on my 18w brick. (1A each charge rate)
Sadly it's sharing power to the USB-A and USB-C ports so I can't also charge my phone...
Will use the AA and AAA somewhere...

Getting bags ready for packing out of the garage.

Find spare material to make leash (or two?) in said bags.

Woo!

Pending some materials to make an LED leash, here's the Bulldog style and collar on a good pup.

This will be 1 of 4 styles running around MFF.
Feel free to say hi!

Remake!

The Leg Strap add-on for the last 7-Point build ended up a little too long.
These are 40 LEDs each down from 53.
Seal curing overnight then assembly tomorrow to get them out for MFF next week!

I'll have a few builds with me! Follow the lights if you want to chat!

Modular 3-pin JST connector used.
Connects to harness/collar at specific input points.

Switching on, the LEDs will flash green and start in static FFT mode.

Press the button to switch modes.
Hold the button until the LEDs flash Red to lock.
Hold the button until the LEDs flash green to unlock.

Box!

Designed for easy use, even while wearing paws or mitts.

3d printed PETG enclosure.
Integrated clip.

Slide toggle switch for on/off.
Low profile to prevent accidental toggle.

Single push button to change or lock the mode.

Single swappable 18650 battery.

USB-C for run and/or charge.
November 18, 2025 at 4:07 PM
Work shopping some hook and loop for slight adjustability at some key connection points.

New X design

Allows the leg strap add-ons on the current MFF 7-point build to be modular

Will update with some better photos once the harness is on the fursuit it was measured for

Set for LAUNCH!

Got a battery for the multimeter.
Power testing puts my 600+ LED and 6+ hour runtime estimates in the ballpark of EXTREMELY conservative.

TL;DR: there's enough juice to rave all night.
Also run+charge via power bank or swap 18650 batteries.
Either way, the power ceiling is HIGH.

FFT video of the X as a treat!

Gotta sew these up and run full battery life tests!

Side note:

Pre-orders will open MFF weekend for payment and processing to begin in January.
(Tax stuff)

Still need to process a few personal/gift builds for photos on the form and measuring guidelines/diagrams.

Want to make your own? Check the pin post. I've made everything open source.

Modes!
FFT Random - LED location chosen randomly when frequency is triggered.
FFT static - Frequency spectrum analyzer
Fade - Fades through the 8 colors in the spectrum.
Rainbow - rainbow scrolls across the length.
Streak - streaks of colors go up and down before switching to the next colors

Field testing!
Gear night at a local venue.
A lot of fun! Pups, fuzzies, and everything in between!
We got in a bit early to get some action shots before it got bumping.
October 27, 2025 at 8:29 PM
Slightly thrown together in 2 evenings so it can be tested tonight and at other events!
Reconsidering the heat shrink on the links or perhaps more exact measure of wiring and shrink.
Will see how it holds up in testing!

Oh yeah!
We got a business card!

Testing the hardware at a few local venues in the coming weeks.
Pre-order soft launch to follow!

Next up is full assembly!

Strips are inserted into pre-cut, pre-sized 1.5" tubular nylon webbing.
( Had to custom order :P )

Arranged and pinned around the metal hardware.
( Re-measured for accuracy to provided specifications )

And finally stitched with a clean 'satin' style stitching.

LED strips then get inserted into a diffuser silicone strip for extra protection, reinforcement, and to add some resistance to moisture.

These are sealed at both ends with hot glue and/or silicone.

Once that's all wired, sealed, and dried, I run a full electrical test in all controller modes.
