So every year we decorate our front yard for halloween. We go all out, and every year I ponder the idea of have animated props, but then time runs out and I never try it. Well this year I want to try it. I don't want to buy one of those pre-made animated props. I want to do it myself. But I don't know how.Servos are cheap, so I started doing a little reading online, and it looks like you have to know how to do circuit boards and shit, and I don't know anything about that stuff. I don't know how to do electronics. I suppose my best bet is just to dive right in and try it, right? I just want something simple... a head turning back and forth, or an arm going up and down, or a cyborg with artificial intelligence.Anybody ever do this stuff?
