Step 4Sewing
Thread a needle with about 50 cm of conductive thread (do not take it double) and stitch from the side into the first marked stitch hole and then make the four stitches and at the end connect to the stretch conductive fabric tab with at least five stitches. Cut the thread and repeat on the second piece of neoprene.
The reason the stitching on both sides must be identical is so that when they lie on top of each other (facing each other) the stitches crisscross and overlap in one point. This has the advantage that the stitches will be sure to cross (make contact at these points) and second that the point of contact is as small as possible. Ive found that if the conductive surfaces are too big that the sensitivity of the sensor is no longer good for what I want.
