Unconventional Switch with a Syringe
I thought a syringe was an interesting base to make a switch
out of. It provides a simple way to engage and disengage the circuit as well as
keeps the switch isolated from outside interference. The ends of the connecting
wires are unlikely to be disturbed because they are surrounded by plastic. With
both ends secured with tape or glue, the circuit ends up being very stable. The
plunger of the syringe is just covered in basic aluminum foil which contacts
both wires in the syringe chamber. Knowing how many resistors to use was
tricky, and I ended up needing to include resistors both in series and in
parallel.
