Step 3Adding wires and hotglueing
First things first, triple check the wiring, then check it again, beeping it out with test meter using a USB extension cable would be the best idea.
its up to you how you attach the wires, I soldered to the strips directly as opposed to putting them through the holes, but thats my preference.
the 2 inner strips are the data lines and the 2 outer lines are power.
When you are happy with your wiring, it is time to hot glue it, if you want to encase it with another method then thats up to you, i usually prefer heat-shrink tubing but I'm all out of that.
When the glue is dry you are left with a custom designed USB A plug.
I hope this is helpful to people and have fun!
