Okay, we have our art box carrying case. We've emptied it out. So it's totally empty. I'll just open this one to show that this one's empty. It's ready to go
0:19
So what we need to do now is add our breadboards on here that we put together in a previous
0:29
step. I'm going to remove this label from this box and just gently peel it off of here
0:46
Like so and I'll move this off to the side. I won't need that anymore
0:51
So this box is now ready to go. I'm going to turn it this way
0:59
it this way because I want to be sure that the handle and the latches are facing
1:08
towards me and that it's also right side up so for this particular box the latches
1:18
open up and then you can open the lid and also notice how the handle is on the top
1:25
half of the box or the lid side. So I want this side to be facing up. That's the side that the
1:38
label was on for this box and that the latches fold up and I can lift the box
1:46
like so. So I need this side up. I'm going to face the handle and latches and latches
1:55
just towards me because I want my breadboards to be placed like such I want it to be sitting about
2:18
like that. But first I want to kind of get this breadboard centered on this box, and I want it away from the edge here a certain distance
2:31
So what I need to do before I stick this breadboard down permanently is I need to measure the width of my complete breadboard. It's about
2:48
seven and a half inches. And my box, I need a longer tape measure for this
3:00
is about let just say 14 and a half inches So my breadboard 7 my box is 14 and a half
3:11
And I want to get equal distance away from either side to center the breadboard
3:20
And I also want my breadboard to be about three quarters of an inch
3:29
or so away from the edge of the box right here. So I think what I'll first do is I'm going to take this off and set it to the side
3:55
And I'm going to use a pencil. because I don't want any permanent markings on here
4:03
I am going to measure from this side first, and I'm going to measure from both sides
4:12
This is just the personal preference, and I'm going to measure three quarters of an inch from the edge here
4:22
You probably won't be able to see that mark in, camera but that's okay I'm just measuring the three-quarters of an inch mark and then I'll make one in the middle here too because I'm going to use my ruler as a straight edge
4:53
Then I'll create just a guideline here for me, for one eye, for when I place the breadboard
5:17
onto the box. Okay. Now I said that my breadboard was 7.5 inches wide, and my box is 14.5 inches wide
5:44
So I have 7 inches of play, and half of that is 3.5 inches
5:52
So I need to come three and a half inches from the edge and I make my mark here and I come three and a half inches from the edge and make my mark there
6:15
That way I know I have it centered and I'll grab my breadboard again
6:27
And I'm just, I'm not going to stick it down yet. What I want to do is just go between the mark
6:34
marks I just made and line them up on the edges of my breadboard on either side and then line
6:44
this edge with the line that I just created three quarters of an inch away from this edge
6:55
Just to kind of look at everything. I mean, it doesn't have to be too perfect
7:02
I think that looks good
7:16
And then later, we'll add this section up here too. And I'll just eyeball the to center of this one
7:27
So in order to attach this, it over and I need to peel all the backings off of this because we're going to stick it down onto the lid of this
7:56
So this material, this paper material here just protects the sticky backing of these breadboards
8:11
So now I want to flip this all over without it falling apart on me
8:23
me. I'm going to put it on its edge like this. I'm going to line it up with my markings
8:34
Lay it down. Gently. Taking my time. And then I guess that looks good. And I'm going to press down
8:53
not too hard because the lid this lid is kind of a flimsy wood it's just a cheap wood box
9:04
but it sturdy enough for doing electronics projects and stuff and what great about this art box that we using here is that it works as a carry case and holding all of our electronics inside when we start putting our power supply on here
9:29
So we can put in, you know, our components and other items and all of our goodies in there
9:39
We can carry it on the go. And I think it's a pretty neat, nifty project
9:50
So now I got my two connected power rails here. And I'm going to remove the paper off of it
10:08
revealing the sticky backing. And like I said, I'm just going to eyeball this one
10:17
You can measure it out if you want, but to try to get it perfectly centered, but I'm not too worried about it
10:26
I can see that my negative marks on my power rail just about line up perfectly with the letter
10:36
B on each side, this letter B and this letter B. So that's pretty good. Now push it down
10:48
kind of firm to stick it all down in place. Remembering not to press too hard because I don't
10:55
want to break the wood box. I mean, you'd have to press fairly hard to crack this box. But I'm
11:06
sure it's possible. It's just a thin wood material. So there we have it. We've emptied out our
11:15
wooden art set box. This is going to be our carrying case. We placed our 3,20020 point breadboard
11:29
and stuck it onto our box. We had measured out the box. We had measured out the body
11:36
center for our or we centered our breadboard onto the box and again we left a little room here away from the edge of the box right here and we also made sure that we stuck our breadboard onto the lid side or the handle side of the box that way when you're working you can just
12:05
Open the latches and be able to flip up and reach inside for whatever you need or put away and then close it back
