Build Time
Now that we have all that pesky planning out of the way, it's time to build a project!
Tips for construction:
- Break the work down into sections or stages of construction, such as sewing in a LilyPad Arduino first and working on LEDs or sensors in batches.
- If possible, prototype and test connections as you complete them. This will catch any problems before the project is finished and may allow more time to fix or change as you go.
- Never work on a powered project! Remember that conductive thread is essentially uninsulated wire. If you were testing a section of the project, be sure to unplug or turn off before beginning construction again.
