- LEDs;
- Plastic bolts;
- Plastic standoffs.
To get two smaller casings from the kit, you’ll need to break one large acrylic piece. But please, be super careful when doing this to make sure you don’t damage the parts you need. 
After breaking it, you’ll end up with two separate pieces of acrylic casings. If you find there’s any acrylic in the holes of the casings, just gently push it out. Remove the protective foil from both sides of the casings now. 
Your casings should be all nice and transparent now. 
Now, let’s dive into the exciting assembly part! Start by grabbing the casing that matches the one in the photo below and gently place it onto the PCB. 
Now, take the battery and check that the plus sign is on the side facing you. 
To make sure everything stays in place, we’ll need to secure these casings with bolts and standoffs. 
Here’s how you do it: put the bolts in from the front and add the standoffs onto the back. 
Fasten the standoffs with your fingers – no need for fancy tools! 
Here’s a handy tip: If you flip Resistron around, you’ll spot tiny + and - signs next to each connector. These little symbols tell you about the polarity. 
When it comes to adding LEDs, it’s a piece of cake! Simply choose whichever LEDs you’d like to use and put them in Resistron’s eyes. 
But remember, pay close attention to the polarity of the LEDs as you connect them. Look for the rounded part (that’s the plus side) and the cut-off part (that’s the minus side) marked on the LED.
Want to change up the speed of the LED show? No problem! Just head to Resistron’s back, where you’ll find a potentiometer. Use a screwdriver to gently twist it until you find the perfect speed to match your mood. 
We hope you enjoyed putting Resistron together and learned something new along the way. And hey, here’s a bonus: Connect it to the CircuitMess BIT and unlock a new game!
