The board with the neat resistors was copied twice. Since two usable boards had already been produced only two more were needed for a four-octave piano. Resistors were attached in the same pattern as the master board by simply making a note of which column needed a resistor and placing one. Each board was populated this way in a short period.

Once the resistors were in place, two sets of wire were cut and soldered in place. When the wires were in place a short piece of wire linked the solder pad with the wire to the solder pads with the header plug and the resistor. Creating the boards was actually a time-consuming process and rather tedious. Each board represented nearly an hour of work, none of which was very exciting. It actually took two days to get through everything.
