Line 55:

On the left bottom we have the circuit for the working chimney. First I thought about some kind of some moving cotton coming out of the chimney but then i found some glitter in my cupboard of wonders and liked the idea of throwing glitter around in room 201 much more fun then just some lame cotton.

So i first made the circuit for a 555 timer in monostable mode.

Then i installed 2 wires on the balcony of my house where one later could pour water on the balcony to activate the circuit, which then would activate an airpump inside of the chimney to blow out the glitter stored in the chimney.

Last we have on the right the circuit for the lights of the house.

I wanted that the windows of my house would lit up automatically when its geting dark outside, just like one would expect from a normal inhabited house.
