The Spinner Card with the Conductive Threads— Happy Haunting!
Hello, happy crafters! Are you ready for this Halloween? It is not so familiar in Japan, but I like to join it with this skeleton spinner card. I love the wicked fun event there! And I saw the Chibitronics website told about the conductive thread. You can see many TIPS for using the conductive thread in […]
Guide to Conductive Thread
Guide to Conductive Thread In this guide, we’ll discuss some properties of conductive thread, tips and tricks, and ways you might use this versatile material in your paper circuit projects. What is it? How might you use it? Conductive thread is a fiber that conducts electricity. Because it is thin and flexible, like ordinary thread, conductive […]
Tapes
Guide to Conductive Tapes There are many different types of conductive tapes, each with their own unique properties. The two most commonly used tapes in paper circuits are copper tape and conductive fabric tape. Use this guide to help you choose the best option for your project! Conductive Tapes Copper Tape Pros: Can be soldered […]
Getting Started with Copper Tape
Getting Started with Copper Tape Overview Copper foil tape comes in two forms: with conductive adhesive and with non-conductive adhesive. You can order copper foil tape with conductive adhesive online here. Copper tape with non-conductive adhesive is more common. For example you can get it at your local hardware store in the gardening section– it’s used to keep snails […]
Conductive Materials
Circuit Stickers works with virtually any conductive material, including Bare Conductive paint and Circuit Scribe conductive ink pens. Below are example circuits created using a wide variety of conductive materials as connective traces. We suggest starting with a roll of copper tape as a starter because it is easy to use and sticks virtually to […]
Conductive Fabric Circuit Patches
Use conductive fabric patches to fix loose circuit connections and make branches in your copper tape! This tutorial will show you how to make your own conductive fabric tape and apply it in common fixes. Materials: conductive fabric (Adafruit or Sparkfun) z-axis conductive tape (Crowdsupply or Adafruit) Steps: 1. Cut a piece of conductive fabric that […]
