Motherboard PCB Bracelet

Step 5 String Them Up

Now after the holes have been drilled I recommend you wash the pieces again to remove any dust substance.

I was thinking of using elastic to hold the bracelet together but there wasn't any available so I used some telephone wire (a single strand) which nicely comes in a variety of different colours!

If you are using elastic you don't need to follow the next step, just tie the elastic so there are no ends.

This should allay your Pb poisioning fears: I made a bracelet like this; I sprayed the underside of the segments w/clear varnish/lacquer (buy a can at the local hdwe store or Lowe's). Afterwards I attacged a thin layer of white felt (it came pre-glued but) I added a few drops of stupor glue to the pieces. I think I'll spray the top sides as well when I make another. I do like the molex power cord concept; although I might alternate the wires for a different effect.
Great idea for repurposing; kudos.

Why not solder the underside? If you solder correctly, it wouldn't feel uncomfortable. :)
