A couple of years ago, I posted this thread hoping to make an LED bulb light up when the Tamagotchi made a sound. Since I finally had more time (after graduating from university) I came back to this idea and made my first attempt at it.
Firstly I bought some tiny LED bulbs from eBay and a...
I got some more silicone mould and luckily the mould had stuck onto the rest of the silicone as hoped. I then used wd40 on the bottom half of the mould after it all dried to stop the second half from sticking. and because I was running low on silicone...again I used the first attempt mould, cut...
Alright! the resin had cured a few days ago and I pulled them out to find that they were bendy. I looked it up and the reasons why that would happen is if the ratio of both parts of the resin was off, which I thought were fine since I used the mesuring cup that came with the resin, or that it...
I finally got around to doing the resin!
i was only planning on doing the antenna and the red top and let me tell you, it nearly went everywhere since the resin wasnt filling the whole mould in. I had to turn it side by side for it to do that. It did get messy. Just make sure to wear gloves and...
Update!
I found some candle jars that I kept to make the moulds out of and had to wait 12 hours for it to dry, (that's what the instructions say) though it had become dry after maybe 3-4 hours.
I had done the 2 back pieces and the anteni thing first.
I had problems with the screws since...
Since quarentine has happened, I've seen many people make money from making items out of resin. Though I don't want to make money out of this idea, i thought about making tamagotchi shells out of resin.
After some research, people have been doing so with the newer versions, but only the front...
I don't know why I hadn't thought of this, but I could solder the LED to the speaker of the Tama! I've seen it done with actual speakers so it could work. But I am worried that the LED wire(thing) will accidentally break other parts of the Tamagotchi from the angle it needs to be at to get to...
That's exactly what I needed to know! Thank you for actually validating that it was do-able!
I was guessing that's where I needed to solder the LED to as I was looking at the inside of my v5 (as I'm not using it at the moment). I wonder it the infra-red light flashes when the tama makes a noise...
So I recently decided to bring my 4 V4/4.5 back to life (but I do also have a V5 too), but one problem I have had is that when they make a beeping noise, to possibly notify me that they are hungry, unhappy or nothing at all, I would't know which tamagotchi to tend to (but the hunger and...
