On friday I will finish putting my circuit into the template box.

Two wires to connect the circuit to the solar panel and six to make two y shaped peices to make the New LEDs in parallel. On tuesday I labeled my final circuit on free hand and struggled with solid works. It's infuriating. Today Im blogging and on Friday Im doing another two hour practical
