Cut the 1/8" mono headphone cable in half, and strip back 2 inches of the black outer coating. I used my teeth. Strip off 1 inch of the inner wire coating, and spin all the outer copper ground wires together to make it a single wire.
With the 1" inner wire, carefully solder it to the underside of the top layer (you can feel it is bumpier on the underside) and melt through the plastic a little to attach as many of those wires together. Hot Glue the connection to hold the wire to the plastic board. Do the same thing to the top of the bottom layer. Make sure not to melt anything in any other layer than what you are working on...
