Bussard spinning circuit

Greetings,
I have a bussard circuit to make spinning leds. It spins in one direction...how do I build the other to spin the opposite direction? Are the leds wired to different pin outs or ?

No electronic wizards in the house?

What's the circuit? I assume you bought it somewhere, do you have a link to the layout? I'm sure it can be reversed, if only by inserting the LEDs on the other side of the board (if you understand me there).

The circuit uses a 4060 and 555 IC chip. The leds rotate clockwise. I am not that good with electronics. I want to make two led circuits that spin towards each other.

As the other dude said, this is easy so long as you follow the logic, just re-order the LEDs in reverse. If you don't know how, you need to learn up or we really can't so much as tell you.

Ok, we all assume that you have TWO round PC boards that the LED's solder into. If that is true, make ONE as normal. Then take the SECOND round board and flip it over so that the back is now the front. Install the LED's on the NEW front side. Wire the 2nd board to the rest of the circuit as per the instructions and now the 2nd board should spin in the opposite direction.
