Claim 1:
2. The method of claim 1:
further comprising
etching a serpentine trace onto a flexible substrate, the serpentine trace defining:
a first set of linear sections extending parallel to the longitudinal axis, offset along the lateral axis, and defining conductive leads;
a first set of curvilinear sections coupling adjacent ends of linear sections in the first set of linear sections; and
a component site coincident each linear section in the first set of linear sections;

for each component site:
installing a sensor on the trace at the component site; and
applying sealant over the sensor and the flexible substrate; and

separating the serpentine trace from regions of the flexible substrate beyond the serpentine trace to form a first flexible serpentine circuit board defining the set of sensing elements offset along the lateral axis; and
loading the first flexible serpentine circuit board into the magazine; and

wherein feeding the leading end of the first sensing element into the wrapping field comprises feeding a start end of the first flexible serpentine circuit board into the wrapping field.
