Step 2 Conductive fabric & preparation

We use two types of conductive fabric for this project:

 

The light gray one is very conductive; used for the Forward/Volume UP actions.

 

The darker one is not so conductive; used for the Back/Volume DOWN actions.

 

  

Cut each piece of conductive fabric into two small 1-inch squares.

 

You'll also need to cut four pieces of fabric: two for making a pouch, and two for an insulator/divider between conductive layers.

 

Experiment with hole sizes: 

   - too small requires a hard squeeze 

   - too large and the remote may turn on even when you don't press it.
