Been working on a vintage Graflex ANH Build. First one.
Installing a P4 Diode on a Star Base, 14500 Battery, Nano Sound Board, 5 LED's for the Crystal Chamber set up

1200-mcd/265/1192/
And the standard Bass Speaker and Button.
I have had several people suggest I modify the schematic since I had issues the first test. Everything has been rewired to match the picture (Battery is a 14500).
Hit the button and everything works as it should, HOWEVER, the resistor for the P4 immediately started to get HOT and smoke, after 60 seconds. The resistors on the LED's got a bit warm, but i think that may be expected.
There's a 1 Ohm 2 Watt on the P4 i think it's the metal not carbon, and a 3.9 Ohm 1.4 Watt on each LED.

Hopefully this pic attaches and is legible.....
Any help about the overheating Resistor would be wonderful; i'm not electrically skilled outside of just putting things together; the Resistor stuff if beyond me.
