Welcome to the Weller club… :wink:

Your Octopod look awesome with the leds! I imagine you could create almost any color with a combination of the three colors.

thanks.

As for the Led’s yes i can. I am using 4 74HC595’s to control the leds with pwm. 1 for each color rgb and one for the grounds. It has a nice color show to it. Need to add 5 wires to it to finish it on the proto board and the lighting is 100% done.

Then on to the legs to make all the wires neat.
