All that is remaining is to upload the firmware, insert batteries, and enjoy remote lights at home. Receiver Arduino code: http://hastebin.com/rosumaneri.coffeeTransmitter Arduino code: http://hastebin.com/xalonaceqe.coffeeOne last thing, this...
If you do try this however and end up with a nice PCB and case for the transmitter and/or receiver, gimme a shout, I'd like to see pics! I'm dismanteling mine now for a house move. For the new house I will buy a kit from dx, but this was a fun learning...
Step 3 - Hit up your local hardware store and pick up all of the lumber and hardware you will need. Or if you are like me, dig through your salvage and scrap for most of it, then pick up what you don't already have.
Step 4 - Now things get interesting. I happen to have access to both large printing equipment and a CNC mill. I was able to print my design at full scale repeatedly till I decided I liked it, then transfer the design into the CNC software...
Step 6 - Get your top graphics printed, or if you can paint the top. Your choice. If you choose to do graphics like I did, you will want to have them printed on a latex inkjet, using a quality self adhesive vinyl, with a polycarbonate...

Print Your Image on Transparency PaperGet yourself some transparency paper from Amazon. You remember, its the stuff they used on overhead projectors in elementary school. Don't even bother going to Staples or Office Depot. The guy gave me a weird look...
Don Your Lab Coat and Rubber Gloves...because it is now time for science! Mix equal parts of solutions A and B. You will not need much. I found about 5ml of each to be just enough for a full page. Spread the solution evenly over a sheet of paper. Those...
Expose the ImageLay the transparency on top of the photo paper and set it outside under a sheet of glass or acrylic. Professionals would use a UV light box (some of you may already have one for making PCBs), but 20 minutes in the California sun works...
