Howdy,
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. My newphew's bday is coming up (he's 6), and I wanted to make him a basic board of buttons and switches. He just loves to press buttons and flick switches, as I'm sure every kid does. I was thinking of just hooking up lights, fans, and anything else I can find so when he hits the buttons or switches the lights or fans come on and off.
I was thinking of getting a piece of plywood about 1ft by 1ft, and then mounting the switches and such on there.
I was curious what your thoughts were on the switches, buttons (and anything else you could think of), as well as a power source (maybe a 12volt battery from Radio Shack, or can I get away with something smaller like 2 triple A's or something)?
Any ideas would be great! Thanks!
