You could chop them off if you really wanted to.

What happens if you do chop them off and you decide to play or test a PCB that uses more buttons etc?

I just cable tie them in a ring to keep them out the way but still available if required.

There is nothing worse than going to add a button and finding that somebody snipped the harness.  :angry:

Yes, coil up the extra wires in a loop and secure wire wire ties.


Don't chop them off!

coil them up and cable tine/tape them up

suggest you also insulate the ends if the wires are bare - to avoid any unexpected short circuits!
