And there it is.. all done! Little bit of hotglue to secure the freeform "brains" in place for all the shaking in its future, and using the red wired purposely soldered in a "too high" arch (so that the wires would pin the brains in place when the baseplate was screwed down.. sneaky, huh?!)
All that was left to do for now was to put a fresh battery in, bolt it all up tight, and add a little red ink to the silver paint I put in the writing on top.. and it was finished!
I'm taking a break on the LeaveMeALONE! box for a while, let it sit in glory for a while on my "neat stuff" shelf. But there ARE plans for further additions! After the relay mod, the DPDT switch is really not being fully used anymore.. and I have ideas for what to do with the "off" position set of posts. Things it can do when its technically "off"... like punish people who peek. But you know the saying: a pic is worth 1000 words, so lets save some space:
From Top to Bottom: micro piezo buzzer, mercury tilt switch, submicro pager vibrator motor. Oh.. that thing on the right? Just a little something I yanked out of an old CD-Rom player.... thats mah LAYZOR diode!!
Basically; if its "off" but the tilt switch on underside of door gets closed, all hell breaks loose on the cover itself- the buzzer is piercing at 9v, the pager motor is insane buzzing (feels like getting shocked, actually) at 9v.. and the laser.. well.. I'm not an EVIL guy, who wants to blind anyone or anything, so I was thinking more for internal effects.. a laser "tripwire" spotted when you open the lid for a peek... or a servo mounted cylon scan sweep inside.. something. I dunno. but nothing EVIL ( maybe I'll save it for mounting on frickin' sharks heads!!)
