Alternate build notes for the breadboard menorah with the shamash on the end. Read through prior to bending or clipping any resistors or jumpers!

In Step 2

  • One of the 0.5” jumpers should be left straight and unclipped
  • One more of the 0.5” jumpers should be made 0.7” instead
  • Use a clipped lead from one of the resistors (ideally from one trimmed to the 0.4” length) to make an extra 0.4” jumper (which will look like a staple)
  • The 51 ohm resistor gets bent in a U-shape


In step 3C

  • the switch goes in row i (instead of j) from 30 to 33


In step 3E

  • The extra 0.7” jumper goes from 50 f to 55 c
  • Use extra 0.4” jumper goes from 32 j to the lower blue stripe
  • The 51 ohm resistor goes from 31 c to 32 c


In step 4

  • Prepare a Red LED according to the Yellow LED instructions, but instead twisting one zero-ohm jumper to each leg. On the long lead, place the body of the jumper slightly lower so that you can tell them apart. Insert from 55 a (long lead) to the blue stripe (short lead).


In Step 5

  • The Yellow LED goes from 31 a to the blue stripe
