It doesn't matter what side, the main purpose of the resistor is to limit the voltage drop across the LED to below the max specified value (typically 2volts), as well as limiting the circuit current.. Otherwise it fries.
Example:
Rated LED V =Vled=2V
Supply voltage =Vs=12v
1800 ohm resistor
Vs(12)=Vled(2) +V resistor=
12-2=8 Volts = Voltage across resistor= Current * 1800ohms
Current = 8/1800=4.4mA
Vielen danke, ausgezeichnet, wunderbar, top hole, great effort, muchacos gracias, , you da man, Большое спасибо!!!

There, will that do?
Very tasty lamps... and lovely looking rake Eamon.
Shame to see money having to leave the country though....
I'll do 4 for €4, unpainted, but with the red filters and post for €1.50 to Ireland or €2.00 rest of the world.....any type
Square coach lamp
Round loco lamp
Modern lamp
Thanks lads.
"cages for those excellent kegs". They are in the "to do" list! Both 2 and 3 layer versions. I may also look at 5x5 layer of barrels to enable easy filling.
And George D. has been sent several packages of SSM goodies
Studio Scale Model's Maedhbh is in the April edition of Model Rail, under Model News page 11. Along with the Sulzer and the Brake Van. Many thanks to Ben Jones for his continuing support of the Irish scene.
Lovely job done! A question, were those tara's got via Donedeal in Waterford? I saw a brace of them on it some time ago..I didn't purchase as too much on the plate at the time.
