- Cut the plexiglass sheets as shown below:
- 52x12cm | X4 lateral
- 51x51cm | X1 base below
- 52x52cm | X1 base above
- Open the ".ide" file and follow the various links indicated.
- Connect the Arduino to the PC and run the processing file in "open_tagada/open_tagada.pde"
- Run all tests
- Assemble the base and glue it to the plexiglass bottom with hot glue.
- Glue the servo to its base, insert the "switch" and connect the remaining parts.
- Glue the MOTOR "converter" to the tagadà and insert the motor into its housing.
- Create a graphic to print on the panels or stick stickers on them.
- Cut the thin bars printed previously and form a fence (in case you don't have a strobe) and glue everything to the structure.
- Glue the tagadà base to the plexiglass base and finish assembling it.
- Make all the various connections in an orderly manner and make a hole at the bottom of the plexiglass base to pass the cables outside.
