Minecraft tutorial: Shorten signal from a redstone button

I couldn't find a video to shorten the redstone signal so I made this one. 

Update: Here is a better way to do what I've done http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5d9dWvDX6Yo

I think it was BrenyBeast http://www.youtube.com/user/BrenyBeast I could be wrong, I've watched a lot of videos. Let me know if I got this wrong.

Script (I kind of followed):
G'day guys and girls.
Today I'm going to show you how to reduce the time a button is pressed.
It's a fairly simple process so to begin with I'll do a demonstration.
This button does the normal length.
And this one is a lot shorter.

How this works is fairly simple. We send the signal to an AND gate, but we split it and delay part of it.
This means that the torches are only both off for a short time and thats the only time the signal is sent on.

Now how can this help you may ask?
Let me show you an example.


If i use a normal button all the carts fall into the lava, 

BUT if we shorten the signal it only releases one at a time. 


Also you might have noticed my buttons are next to each other, this is easy to do, just put a repeater behind one of them and it stops the signals crossing. Thanks to BrenyBeast for this. I saw it in his beat maker tutorial.

Until next time, take care.
