    Wire to Conductive Fabric Connection

    in progress…

    Inspired by Vaclav’s Magic Shoe connections…

    Poke wires through strips of conductive fabric and soldered them to stripy protoboard. Solder quickly at low heat to avoid that the heat of the soldering will melt the stretch conductive fabric and burn the conductive layer of silver.
