    I still need help BUT JUST A LITTLE MORE MrAl I sent you a PM a few minutes ago. The answer to your first question is I don't want them blinking like a strobe. I have seen the one second on and 1/2 second off and that looked really good to me. So if you can I would prefer that. The...

    Please I need help building a circuit

    Hi MrAl I figure if I cover the backside of the board with .005" thick styrene I can use it as the part of the floor in place of the one that came with the kit. so I can give up another .070". Will that be enough? .170 height max and that is squeezing it. SMD's are pretty easy for me compared...

    Please I need help building a circuit

    MrAl So far it looks good. I know it is just a rough drawing but I will need the pin layout for the SA555's and a Key to the parts. Like I say I'm dumber than than Dumb can be when it comes to reading a schematic. I can understand most of what you have so far but d1 &d2 placement is still...

    Please I need help building a circuit

    Hi Again MrAl The actual part numbers are SA555 By T.I. and I have 10 of them. the resistors I have 20 each and the capacitors I have 5 each. Getting more parts with higher values is easy I only pay $1.00 for 20 resistors and the SA555's are only .49 cents each. I know I will need some diodes...
