Abstract
A board for installation in a liquid crystal panel with at least one slit at a portion thereof to be bent has a resin coating applied to a bridge portion of a conductive pattern formed over the slit. The resin coating resists external load applied during bending of the board. This board may be made by a method having the steps of punching a slit in the board corresponding to a position where the board is to be bent; forming a metal laminate on the board; forming a conductive pattern by etching the metal laminate; applying a resin coating capable of resisting an external load, which is applied during subsequent bending of the board, onto the conductive pattern across the slit; and curing the resin coating. The board is thereafter bent and installed in a liquid crystal panel.
