Step 5: Aligning the Matrix

Laying the matrix perfectly on top of your completed back, mark where the wires are (see pic). Using a dremmel, create little tunnels for the wires. Since I'm making two, I brought up an extra wire to have an input connector and an output connector.  

Paint this next, align, and glue, being sure to use adequate pressure (bags of concrete helped with this... had to reglue a few times though :P)

At this time, you should also drill the output/input holes. If you plan on adding more units later, soulder a long cable from the bottom of the strip to the top so the input and output can be next to eachother.
