VIBRATOR

1/4” off of one end of both wires. (C) Solder
the stripped ends to each vibrator lead.
3
.
(A) Cut 3/4” piece of heat shrink tubing.
(B) Slip the heat shrink over both wires and
position it 2” before the vibrator. (C) Shrink the
tube until it is snug on the wires. (D) Strip an
1/8” off of the opposite end of each wire. (E)
Slip the wires into the pin header and solder
them in place.

.
(A) Cut two pieces of heat shrink slightly
longer than the vibrator leads. (B) Slip the tub-
ing over the two leads and the wires making
sure to cover all exposed metal. (C) Shrink the
tubing.
TIP
You can add a drop of hot glue between
the two wires at the end of the vibrator
to prevent the wires from snapping. You
can substitute thinner or stranded wire
for the wire attachment to the vibrator.
The more flexible the wire, usually the
better the sound you will get. On the
downside, the wires may tend to snap
more easily.

THE MORE FLEXIBLE THE WIRE, THE BETTER IT WILL
SOUND. ON THE DOWNSIDE, THE WIRES MAY TEND TO
SNAP MORE EASILY.
