What’s your favorite value of resistor? 1K? 10K? They’re all fine, but when you need nearly no resistance at all, nothing beats the good old zero-ohm resistor. Wait a minute! Resistors are ...

Just make sure you’re starting off with a carbon film resistor as this will not work with the metal film variety. His example shows a 10k resistor which is reading just 9.92k on his multimeter.
