Carefully cut out the viewing windows in the holder.
Cut small slits over the red dots on the holder (both sides = 8 cuts). This is where the paper fasteners will anchor each wheel.

Shorten the tabs on four paper fasteners with a pair of clippers. This is optional but we think it looks nicer! |
|
|
Use a ruler to gently score (but not cut!) the fold line on the holder. The holder folds easily and neatly after scoring. |
Pierce a paper fastener through a tab on one side of the holder and through a wheel.
You can assemble the Resistor Helper with either side as the “front,” but we think you’ll use the 4-band side more often.
|
|
Pierce through the opposite side of the holder and flare out the tabs on the fastener to secure. Repeat with the other three wheels. |
Once you’ve verified you assembled the wheels in the right order, carefully glue together the corners/edges of the holder.
That’s it! Use and enjoy!
