Homemade miniature xmas tree

This is my own xmas tree. I´ve built it last year using a small plastic tree branch I found on the street, four mini leds, a 555 integrated circuit and some other components.
Its base is made from one of those metal things you can find inside potato chip bags, and fastened with a screw.

como hiciste eso??? o.o

[gatogrisfur]

Usé una rama de arbolito de navidad,cuatro mini LEDs, un circuito integrado 555 y otros componentes varios. Lo atornillé a un tazo de Eber Ludueña y le puse una batería :D

El circuito para hacer andar el 555 en modo astable lo podés encontra en cualquier lado,

so cool how did u made it? :D

Well, the circuit is fairly simple, but it would be hard to explain here... Just look for some 555 tutorial, you must configure it as an astable multivibrator, and use 4 leds and a resistor (e.g. 100 ohm) at its output.
