Quad 2-inp pos-NAND
660-MF1/4LCT52R222J
1/4 WATT 2.2K OHM 5%
660-MF1/4LCT52R103J
1/4 WATT 10K OHM 5%
512-2N3904TF
NPN 40V 200mA
594-K103M15X7RF53H5
.2LS .01UF 50V 20%

Those are pictures of the circuit. On closer inspection the lead that connects the Phototransistor to the resistors wasn't soldered on right and was only making intermediate contact, so I'll try soldering it tommorow and see if the results are affected. I also sawed down the tip of the marker to put the transistor closer to the point.
