Got bored from all this wind we are having down in the keys and decided to build some home made flashers. I had some linear polarizing film left over from when i was making lenses for the go pro and its been sitting in a box ever since. Its a thin plastic sheet thats pretty stiff but can be bent and retain its shape. I cut a 4 inch strip of the plastic and laid two strips of 2inch flasher tape side by side to cover the outside.
I cut the larger strip into triangles and was left over with 6 of these
I cut a second 2 inch long strip and added tape for a smaller sized flasher and cut it into triangles. I drilled a hole in the top center and bottom center to allow for the ring and swivels and was left over with a pile of shiny triangles. I bent the bottom corners to make the twist and attached them all together in one way or another.
Pretty self-explanatory, and hopefully they will do well. Its supposed to calm down at the end of the week and i hope to test them then.
