Enclosure and Button Extension
02/13/2020 at 06:45 • 0 commentsHere is a video showing the button actions, and since I was up on a scaffold I recorded the chiming from above.
I printed a box for the NodeMCU and for a button. (My first ever 3D print!)The button has an LED to give some feedback about the mute state: one flash - muted for 1 hour, two flashes - two hours, etc.
The button box has a magnet to stick on the steel frame of the old house. The button will be put on the column near the clock.

New Tube Hanging
01/26/2020 at 14:15 • 0 commentsOne problem I had was with a single support point, the tubes would swing a bit after the striker hits it. This could cause a double hit or missed hit depending on the swinging and time of next strike.
I decided to drill a 2nd pair of holes and run 2 wires to support the tube. The sound is still as good as before! And now the tubes are much more stable.
