    The shot of the pink thing is the motor and tranny out of a Barbies riding Jeep and the two black components are the motor and relays from a remote control four wheel drive truck I found at a garage sale. The Barbie Jeep motor operates the remote control shades screen and the motor and relays operate the top vents. That's only the beginning of the list of abstract components used in this Coble

    Great project! I really like your innovative use of the recycled electrical components. Please post photos of the finished project so we can see how it all works.

    Thank you very much. Question, is there a way to post short videos of two minutes or less? Because I have a few saved videos of the vents functioning and the shade screen functioning

    Not directly. You would have to post the video to another host (You Tube, etc) and then post a link here.

    If anyone knows another way please speak up. I will ask Brent if there will be capability to post a video directly at some point.

    Thank you. I didn't think so. I had tried a number of ways but failed on each account. I will try the youtube Avenue and see if I can make any sense that way. Something tells me I'm going to need a beer after that one

    From Brent:
    "Currently we only support 3rd party sites like Youtube."
