Step 6Doin' it and doin' it and doin' it well...
OK, enough science.
Once you've got this process down, do it again and again until you've made 96/4=24 strands of 4 LEDs each. (If you bought 100, this uses up 96 LEDs and gives you four spares.)
After each strand is tested, make sure the leads are mechanically sound using the needle-nosed pliers, but take special care not to break the leads off the LEDs. If you're into soldering, at this point you might want to simply fasten the strand to a third hand alligator clip tool and solder away, but do twist the leads together at least enough to make a mechanical connection, as solder is not good for that job.
