Prepare PCB
Cut In Half
When ordered from ExpressPCB, the Tripoke PCB comes with two boards on a single piece of silicon. First, cut them in half. With a ruler, mark a center cut line, and then follow it carefully with a cutoff wheel (like [2]) on a dremel.
Safety note:
- You should wear a respirator when cutting silicon to avoid silicosis
- you should also be careful to not put any pressure on the cut-off wheel orthogonal to the direction it spins. The wheels can shatter, and while they are light, they can do damage to your eyes and hands.
- Always wear safety goggles when using a dremel!
- Always think about escape routes when using power tools: hold the piece so that if it were to catch, it would pull it or you away from the tool, instead of into it.
