Cause I bent it before I welded it so I could round the corners where the fold is 
this pack will fold together in the middle

What’s the thinking behind that ends only fish paper technique?
why ends only?
why wave it in and out with the battery rather than more of a strap across the pgroup? ( if that makes sense. )

It has the same background as all of etoxx product images, that’s why I thought etoxx, sorry!

Battery needs to be fucking tight to fit in the enclosure. Without conforming to the shape of the cells, i can’t achieve the tight stagger i need.
Fishpaper on the ends only so that groups are still insulated from each other but i can still get glue from cell to cell between p groups. Papering the whole pack wouldn’t have worked for two reasons;
-
its a lot harder to get that nice conformity to the cell shape with full size paper
-
i wanted all the cells glued together and not relying on the fishpaper adhesive
Here’s how i glued the p groups together

I was wondering what’s up and meant to ask, from the top pick it looks like you only used a spot of glue top and bottom of the cell…
and then you made it all clear…
