I also will begin making the finger pieces and plan on their attachment. I also have a plan to attach all the wires for each piece using conductive snaps so that each piece can be removed separately. \u00a0After all the pieces are completed, I plan to attach the buttons and flex sensors to the body suit and make sure they and the pieces don&#8217;t interfere with each other.<\/p>\n<p>A slight setback, I noticed one of my lower arm pieces was too small on my arm beyond what I originally intended.
