INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Take a strand from the outside edge of the left section and cross it over, making sure it crosses over the strand from the other side. As you move down the length of your hair, you'll see the fishtail pattern emerging.

SUMMARY: Cross a strand from the left section to the right. Continue crossing strands back and forth. Secure the end with a ponytail holder.


INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Find the circuit breaker or fuse box, which will be in the basement or bottom floor of your home. Flip the switch for the garage. To test for an electrical current, plug a radio or lamp into a wall outlet in the garage. If the power is off, the device won’t turn on. Pick an outlet as close to the door as possible to make installing the floodlights easier. Use a screwdriver to loosen the outlet. Remove the screws on the sides of the outlet to free the wires. Leave the electrical box containing the wires in the wall. Visit a home improvement store to purchase an extension box that is the same shape as the outlet. The mounting plate will be included. Fit the plate around the electrical box and, using the included screws, fasten it to the wall. First, look for a circle, also called a knock-out plug, on the top surface of the extension box. Use the tip of your screwdriver to pry the plug up and away. Then position a 1⁄2 in (1.3 cm) metal conduit connector on top of the hole. The metal conduit connector, along with other conduit pieces, can be found at most home improvement stores. The extension box will come with 2 long screws. Position the extension box on the plate with the conduit connector facing upwards. Line up the holes on the box and plate, then use the screws to fasten them together.

SUMMARY: Turn off the electricity to the garage. Unscrew a wall outlet near the garage door. Screw a metal mounting plate over the electrical box. Attach a metal conduit connector to the extension box. Screw the extension box to the mounting plate.


INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Fanfiction is always based on an existing work of art. You are essentially making a story that expands or otherwise alters existing fiction. The mediums you might choose from are endless. Fanfics have been written about books, movies, television shows, video games, and just about anything else with a narrative base and a fandom to admire it. You should pick a fictional universe you already feel closely to. Common choices for fanfic are Star Wars, Harry Potter, and a number of anime and manga franchises. The choice of universe you choose to base your own work on will have the largest impact on your story and the way it turns out. Certain universes also favour certain approaches in fanfic. It's important to note however that your choices as a fanfic writer are limitless. You can do anything you want to the source material, even if that means transforming it into something else entirely. Most fanfiction tends to be based on a science-fiction or fantasy-themed universe, like Harry Potter or Star Trek. These are great to base fanfics off of because they offer huge universes with an endless amount of storytelling potential. Look online and read up everything you can about the given universe. Even if you're planning on breaking free of the established canon (what the author/director/etc has already established) with your fanfic, it helps a lot to know the rules before you break them. The best ideas you'll get for your work will be inspired by the source material itself. With that said, it still helps to see what other fans have done with the same ideas. Using a website like Fanfiction.net, Archive of Our Own, and Wattpad, or you can take a look through some fanfiction that matches your on source material. Read some stories people have written. Most importantly, get a grasp of the ways in which people use and adapt the source. In looking for fanfiction to read, you may get the looming impression that a lot of fanfiction lacks for quality. Being part of the fanfic community means acknowledging that not everyone is at the same level of skill. Most fanfiction is amateurish, and a lot of it frankly isn't worth reading. It takes patience to find the great stuff.

SUMMARY: Choose source material to work from. Read up on the fictional universe. Read some fanfiction.


INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Your choice will usually be based on the availability of materials needed by the method, the technical difficulty level of the method or the quality of PCB you desire to obtain. Here's a brief summary of the different methods and their main features that will help you decide:   Acid etching method: this method requires extreme safety measure, the availability of many materials such as the etchant and it is somewhat slow. The quality of PCB obtained varies according to the materials you use but generally, it is a good method for simple to intermediate levels of complexity circuits. Circuits involving more close wiring and tiny wires usually use other methods.  UV etching method: this method is used for transposition of your PCB layout onto your PCB board and requires more expensive materials that might not be available everywhere. However, the steps are relatively simple and can produce finer and more complicated circuit layouts.  Mechanical etching/routing method: this method requires special machines that will mechanically etch away unnecessary copper from the board or route empty separators between wires. It can be expensive if you intend to buy one of those machines and usually leasing them requires the availability of a workshop nearby. However, this method is good if you need to create many copies of the circuit and also can produce fine PCBs.  Laser etching method: this is usually used by large production companies, but can be found on some universities. The concept is similar to mechanical etching but LASER beams are used to etch the board. It is usually hard to access such machines, but if your local university is one of the lucky ones having such machine, you can use their facilities if they allow it. For acid etching, you need to draw the circuitry using an etchant resistant material. Special markers can be found easily for this specific purpose if you intend to do the drawing by hand (not appropriate for medium to large circuits). Laser printers' ink is the most commonly used material however. This is usually done by converting your circuit's schematic diagram into a PCB layout using PCB layout software. There are many open source software packages for PCB layout creation and design, some are listed here to give you a head-start:  PCB ShortCut  Print it out on a glossy paper, such as magazine paper. You should ensure the circuit is mirrored before doing that (most PCB layout programs have this as an option when printing). Once printed, make sure you don’t touch the ink part on the paper as it can get on your hands. Start up your iron. Set the iron on the cotton setting and wait until it heats up.   Be careful, the paper will be hot. The paper should be stuck to the circuit board, don’t rip it out. An alternative approach is to immerse the board and paper in hot water for a few minutes (up to 10 minutes). If certain areas seem particularly difficult to peel off, you can try soaking a bit more. If everything went well, you will have a copper board with your PCB pads and signal lines traced out in black toner. Get the big droplets of water off by softly wiping with a napkin or sponge or just letting them fall out. It shouldn’t take more than 30 seconds and it should not be vigorous or else the ink on to the circuit might come off. This process removes any unnecessary copper from the board leaving only wiring of the final circuit.

SUMMARY:
Choose a method to use for creating the PCB. Create the PCB Layout of your circuit. Once you are happy with the schematic on your computer, match the size of the diagram on the software so that both the circuit board and the paper will have the needed sizes. Print out the diagram from the software's File menu. Align the circuit diagram on the paper with the circuit board (the diagram should be facing the copper part of the circuit board). Once heated, carefully place the iron on top of the paper which is on top of the circuit board. Place the iron there for about 30-45 seconds (depending on your iron). After lifting the iron, put it aside carefully and take the circuit board to your nearest source of water. Start the water flow and hold the circuit board below it. Slowing start taking off the paper and soon all of the paper should come off. Dry the board. Etch the board using one of the methods below.
