YOUR BEEPING EGG IS NOW COMPLETE!
Please Note: If the beeping EGG is NOT LOUD ENOUGH, it may be necessary to drill a small 1/4” hole into egg shell to allow the beeping sound to escape from inside the shell. Drill this hole into the egg shell half that doesn’t have the On/Off Slide Switch attached to it.
