== Outline ==


We intend to construct a electronic chasing sequence circuit, consisting of LEDs within a mirrorball. 


== Construction ==


With the help of Ricky managing to get a mirrorball we could chop up, we split the mirrorball into three sections using the pyrograph. This way easily done as it was hollow. On each of the three sections we cut seven little grooves so 7 LEDs could sit flush in the polystyrene. They were held in place using LX tape, allowing us to solder the bell wire onto the ends of the LEDs. This process was repeated for each of the other sections. We thought it would be a nice idea to incorporate a sequencer within the mirrorball so that the LEDs would flash on and off.

It is made of three series circuits, with seven parallel circuits within each series.  Please refer to the diagram below for more information.
