Using a "kerf" to make a PCB which has a bend.

Serpentine cuts which allow the board to be bent over a curve in a small space. Serpentines may carry a trace which connects the board with equipment on the other end of the bend.

Cross sections should have a constant size, have rounded edges, and traces should be put on the side being stretched by a bend (not the part being folded/crushed.)
