It's all this do it yourself, assemble the kit...without any idea on how it works type of mentality.
To z80 if you read my first post you would quite clearly understand that i didn't think this subject was going to be a walk in the park bludge without requiring some decent effort. But you seem to like stating that i jumped into the subject thinking that it was just a 1+1 subject.

I cannot choose the way my mentor teaches me and how he chooses to not grasp how i am struggling with the topic. What do you want me do it's not easy for everyone

But a mate in my class told me what we were building (A Stable 555 circuit which should flash for 11 seconds and then time out and stop. This is the circuit as it's currently not working. I am still trying to classify what the problem is..

Sorry for the poor quality images my N95 autofocus seems to be not focusing correctly... loving it too..
