When you get your transistors from RS (see above for part #) go by the attached schematic.
NOTE: If you are using 32 vdc supply, change the resistor between V+ and the LED to one of about 1500 ohms (brown-green-red striped) and about 15,000 (brown-green-orange) on the base. You would really be better off to pick up Radio Shack part #270-412, a three AAA battery holder ($1.69). This will give you 4.5 volts, enough for most experimental projects.
