Step 8Build: Install Forebrain
A small gap needs to be cut into the base for the USB cable to pass through. I did this with a dremel, but feasibly you could use a file, or a small saw.
In my case I also ground down the front corners of Forebrain to fit the curvature of the base better. This isn't for the faint of heart to cut into your dev boards like that, but I can tell you with reasonable certainty that as long as you don't go too far, you won't hit anything vital (worst case is that the USB LED stops working).
Then solder the remaining wires connecting Forebrain to the board as per the circuit diagram in the previous page, there should only be three: 5V and GND from the USB, and Port 2 Pin 11 to the resistor.
