vinyl cutter to cut traces
somehow,
I've never used the vinyl cutter successfully. This time, after a
little push and pull and some help, the machine began to cut. The
problem was that I had saved my .png as an RGB not a Greyscale file.
I tried several force/speeds until one seemed to cut through.
(various
results, final F-75, V-1.8)

attaching the traces to the plexi pieces. Finally
after several awful attempts and more vinyl cutting, I established a
technique of using double stick tape (no other kind left), and then
using the back side to line up the copper to the plexi.

I managed to get all of the thicker traces onto the squares, but not
the thin ones.

the
vinyl cut file was designed so that the legs of the traces would fold
over the material and provide space for a joint + magnet. 
EPILOGUE
/////
Unfortunately
I was crunched for time this week with 4 other papers, I believe
totaling 60 pages, and did not get very far. Needless to say, I've
gathered all my materials, bought my own soldering kit, LEDs etc. and
hope to continue working on this and other projects.
