Anybody who can give me some hints? I am trying to build a "cop flasher". With other words... This thing should give 4 pulses on right side, 4 on left side, and repeat this pattern 4 times, then it should alternate from left to right with one single flash on each, and then start all over again... Anybody please help me!

I would say use a microprossesor or PIC. otherwise you are going to have a lot of ICs

You're going to need some electronics experience for this. But if you know your way around a simple circuit, take a look at the BasicSTAMP microcontroller. http://www.parallax.com

Try a local technical college, they might have the equipment you need, and they might let you use it.

If you have read my other comments, you may get the impression that i don't like ics. it isin't that i don't like them, its that i don't really know how to use alot of them. anyway, get a metal drum, put tape around it in certain places and attach a brush to brush the can. the tape breaks the electric connection. go with it. much cheeper, more hassle (not really)
