Build the circuit. It doesn’t do

anything, and may appear to be

missing something. It is missing

something, and that something is

you.
Touch points A & B with your fingers.

The white LED (D6) may be lit. If

isn’t bright, then you are not making

a good enough electrical connection

with the metal. Try pressing harder

on the snaps, or wet your fingers

with water or saliva. The LED should

be bright now. You can replace the

white LED with the red or color

LEDs (D1 & D8).

Turn on the slide switch (S1), and push the press switch (S2). The red

and color LEDs (D1 & D8) stay on for a few seconds after you release

the press switch.
You can change how long the LEDs stay on for by replacing the 100mF

capacitor with the 0.1mF capacitor, by replacing the 100kW resistor (R5)

with the 5.1kW resistor (R3), or by removing the 100kW resistor.
For more fun, try swapping the locations of the LEDs, or replacing either

with the white LED (D6).

Turn on the switch (S1)

and move the lever on

the adjustable resistor

(RV) around. The circuit

makes a tone sound, but

only over a small range

of settings on RV.
Replace the 0.1mF

capacitor (C2) with the

1mF capacitor (C7). The

tone is a little different

now.
