Assembly of the shield is straightforward. Directions are given at the [https://learn.adafruit.com/adafruit-proto-screw-shield/intro|Adafruit site]. There is no need to connect the LED's and resistors on the proto-shield. We will not be using them, and they will not be visible within our lamp. So, all you really need to assemble are the screw terminals (and the reset buttons is fine as well - doesn't hurt anything to have it, but it is sort of hard to press inside of the lamp).
