Claim:
1. A method comprising: forming a touch sensor on a sheet of base film, the touch sensor comprising one or more bond pads including a first bond pad and a second bond pad formed on the base film, said first and second bond pads connecting to conductive traces at a first side of the touch sensor; forming a first shorting bar coupling together two or more contacts of the first bond pad at the first side of the touch sensor; forming a second shorting bar coupling together two or more contacts of the second bond pad at the first side of the touch sensor, wherein the second shorting bar is disconnected from the first shorting bar while the first shorting bar is coupling together two or more contacts of the first bond pad and the second shorting bar is coupling together two or more contacts of the second bond pad; and removing the touch sensor from the sheet of base film; and thereafter separating, the touch sensor from the first shorting bar and the second shorting bar.
