    I'll be honest, I saw the Santa legs sticking out from the chimney on your roof lighting video, but I thought it was a real chimney! When I clicked the video tonight, I thought it would be a tutorial on how to add the legs but I didn't expect the chimney too! Great job! It looks very realistic!

    Really a very cool and well thought out project, that affords you the ability to upgrade it in the future, so it has animated legs kicking back and forth. I'd go with a 12vdc wiper motor since they're already pretty waterproof, and 100% duty cycle and won't get hot and start a fire. Wiper motors are pretty good quality and HAVE TO WORK, because it's a safety issue. The downside is you need a 12vdc power supply, but you could keep that under cover at ground level and just run a cheap SPT-1 lamp cord with a plug in up to the motor. Keep up the great work.

    Oh man, Isaac, this project is so amazing and such an incredibly creative idea! 🤩
    I must say, it’s probably my favorite so far of the season. There’s just something about Christmas decorations displayed on a rooftop that completely grabs the attention.
    Your Santa stuck in a chimney reminds me of the joy and wide-eyed wonder of a child this time of year. It certainly stirs feelings of amazement and fascination from my own childhood: that absolutely captivating and thrilling sensation of something magical happening that we may not see but very much feel and believe. 🎅🏼
    Your project definitely captures the imagination of a child. I am certain that parents absolutely adore soaking in the happiness and excitement on the faces of their children when visiting your fascinating display. Thanks for that, man! ✨
    This Christmas season, may we humble ourselves to wonder alongside our children. Let us once again believe in the possibility of miracles. Thank you for sharing! ❤️ 💚

    Hi. I just came across one of your videos that someone had reposted in one of my Facebook groups and now I'm hooked (and subscribed)!! My question ❓ is I live in a double wide mobile home in a very windy and rainy area for winter in Texas. I live by myself and not to keen about letting someone attach something to the top of my roof when I can't see what they are doing. Unfortunately when you are paying someone they don't always take pride in a job well done. That being said, is there a safer way (for my roof) to attach the chimney? I have so many children in my community that would absolutely adore this! I hope you can help. I was also concerned with the platform moving back and forth in the wind and messing with the shingles. Thank you so much for your help and your wonderful ideas!
