After I was accepted as an official Maker at Maker Festival 2015<\/a>, I started planning my booth<\/em>. One of the things I’ve always liked about organizations with tables at events is a consistency in attire. Shows a solidarity in the group.\u00a0The idea for a design for myself and my brother, who would be helping me out at the show, to wear popped into my head. What better design than a LED?<\/p>\n

My entire project is based off a simple LED. One of the most common questions is “Which side is positive and which is negative?” Answer: Anode (long lead) is positive and Cathode (short lead) is negative or ground. When pairing a LED to a watch battery, this is important to know and become second nature on your 50th ball. But the first time? Maybe not so much.<\/p>\n

So I designed this;<\/p>\n
