Blacksmith's Forge Kit with pulsing to simulate bellows pumping.
Micro-Processor controlled special effects circuit to simulate a pulsing & flashing Blacksmith's Forge fire. The microprocessor increases, deceases and pulses the brightness of a 3mm Orange LEDs in a fashion that simulates a small fire in a Blacksmith's Forge. The microprocessor increases and decreases the brightness of an LED to simulate the pumping of air with a bellows into the fire in the forge. After several pumps the brightness remains constant for a time, then slowly fades away to a set level. It remains steady for a while and the begins the process over again and ramps up the fire.
The circuit is programmed to run for about 5 minutes and then pause for about 2 minutes. Simply adding a jumper (or switch) will allow the circuit to run continuous.
Mount the 3 mm LED in a Forge scene with just the tip of the LED sticking up. Then put small coal type ballast around it to make the forge look realistic
