Another awesome Tilde project
For Joule Thief Cat Kit
My package arrived in a protective bag from the mail, and as it seemed the batteryholders ripped out of the package in transit. But as expected the Tilde people resolved the problem swiftly. Instructions to build the cat are very simple and clear. Winding the coil is the trickiest part of the project, I only managed to push 9 loops through. The festive hat (add-on) is a very nice touch, but it was a bit tricky to put together (had to cut away on the inserts a little bit) Did not spoil any of the fun though.
The cat, once risen from the dead on an old battery, will show you her glowing eyes for hours and hours :-)
