To make things easier, how do people design a circuit and put it on paper ?

Explanation:

A paper circuit is a functioning electronic circuit built on a paper surface. Projects involving paper circuits are unique because of the use of traditional art techniques and some unique materials to create a circuit that combines aesthetics and functionality.

Paper circuit are sometimes carefully designed and then transfered on the paper, and in some cases, they are designed directly on the paper (usually by experts that already know what they're doing).

To make designing circuit on paper easier, there are three commonly used materials for the circuitry and they are, conductive paints, conductive tapes and conductive inks.

Conductive tapes are made from metal strip (usually copper) that are taped to the paper. They are good to work with since they allow components to be soldered on them creating a stronger and more reliable joint.

Conductive paints are special paints that can be used to outline circuit path and also serve as the circuit. The only problem with conducting paints is that it can be messy, and needs time to dry.

Conductive inks are easier to use as they need no drying time. They are far less messy and allows the drawing of elaborate and more intricate circuit on the paper.

There are also components that have been modified (like led lights etc) and available to make paper circuit design easier.

okay i have so many questions. but the big one here is: um wt..f is this mess? ?
