## Step 3: Attach the PCB anchor to the base PCB
**TODO PIX pcb anchor into base**
Alignment is not crucial here; in later steps, the PCB assembly jig will be used to ensure alignment.
## Step 4: Attach the vertical PCB to the PCB anchor
**TODO PIX putting vertical PCB into PCB anchor**
Again, alignment is not crucial here.
## Step 5: Put the PCBs into the PCB assembly jig
**TODO PIX putting base PCB into assembly jig**
Make sure that the PCBs are seated fully and completely in the assembly jig, as alignment is crucial.
## Step 6: Solder pads from the two PCBs together
**TODO PIX solder being applied to shared pads**
- Set the soldering iron's temperature to higher than normal, as the pads are large and shed heat quickly
- Apply generous amounts of solder to ensure a good connection and good mechanical strength
