how to make the most movie accurate arc reactor EVER!

Step 6 Done

and you are now tony stark i hope this has helped please rate this 5 stars and thank you.

here are some pics with the reactor and repulsors coming soon.

really good! btw u remind me of justin beiber... hope thats not an insult XD

needs some work but you're almost there bro. (almost looks professional) very nicely done. i guess all you need are a few more tools (and the knowledge to use them of course) and you'll do great in fabrication. :) as for the lights being too bright, don't worry about that too much. i'm sure you could fix that. cheerios! :P

 have you thought about using el wire? at least for the lights for the hands

[duelist]

Is there any easier way to do this???

[Ironman97]

Is there a simpler way to do this project?

wow... umm.. are you sure you wired the LEDs correctly? looks a little too bright to be correct... BTW, I'm 14, ns to meet you... anyway... yea... 9 volts powering a little LED seems a little harsh for the little guys... after all they can only take 3.3 volts to be insanely bright and still last you a few months...

[Robotrix]

It would depend on how you wired the LEDs. If they're all in parallel and getting the full 9 volts, you're right, it would be way too much. But what if you broke it up into three parallel groups and connected those in series? Each group should get about 3V. Of course, he didn't mention it, but they're all going to have current limiting resistors as well. 9V is ok as long as you can spread it over a lot of lights!

It could be the photograph. Cameras, if left on full auto mode, tend to over-emphasize the brightness of light sources.

[1oooop]

true, that's why I lower exposure. My suggestion is use full auto only when manual fails... LOL
