Back in with Pete today for the final minor tweaks...or so I thought..

I want all of the components to fit in with the box that I have made. 

To do this I need to get rid of the bread board and rewire the servo motor directly to the arduino, solder the red wire from the motion detector to arduino (5v) and the sensor motor via a nice pink wire directly to the arduino.

I will make the wiring a bit tidier so it doesnt get tangled up with the arm of the servo motor, securing the wires down with gafffer tape for extra security and 

re-make the extension arm with a more acute angle at the end (a bit like the joint of a finger), in order to to get the flower to close more completly as I really don't want to have to remake it with a thinner paper to get the full effect of the opening and closing petals.

I also need to cut a few holes in the box to accomodate the power lead 

and the the wires from the motion sensor that will be attached 

to the from front of the box.

PHEW!
