#100231 - 556 timer
first off i would like to let you know i have no idea what im talking about
ive just begun learning about timers 2 days ago
ive made a schematic which (i hope) will eject and close a dvd tray
http://img356.imageshack.us/my.php?im...est0dw.png
i would like some comments about if it will work correctly
also if anyone has any sugestions on how to:
hold the switch for 3-5 seconds to trigger it

what i want done is to
press the switch to ground out a line (not shown)
or
hold the switch for 3-5 seconds to trigger this circuit
any and all feedback would be helpful
thanks
