Hi Mazikowski,
I know it's tempting to use the circuit with the CD4017
because it does it all in one box but if you want a led
bar it's getting rather complicated and you're gonna get
more trouble than you can handle.
Stick to the circuit with the shift register, if you add
a second CD4015 you'll get 16 outputs.
And if you add transistors you can drive as many leds
as you want.

All I can really read on that diagram are the CD4015 and CD4093. Could you possibly clarify what other components you have listed on there?
Also, how would I limit it to only 10 LEDs (with the first on as long as the circuit is on)?
EDIT: Would I just leave 1 LED getting direct power (not on the shift register) and use 9 outputs with the 10th output going to the clear pin on all CD4015's?
