Entry guide: step 2 of 12

Straighten out some boards with the warp tool...
Entry guide: step 3 of 12

Couldn't read the gauge in the source photo, so i found one and cut it out...

Entry guide: step 4 of 12

doped out the pipe at the bottom
Entry guide: step 5 of 12

dropped copies of the gauge on key spots (tracing some of the circuit board, blown way up)
Entry guide: step 6 of 12

Began making wooden circuit traces - using an action button i made to rotate an item 45°.
Entry guide: step 7 of 12

using Ctrl+click on the right layer - it is easy to erase the excess "lumber"...
Entry guide: step 8 of 12

filled in space with copies and cut them to fit, added more dupes of the gauge at the terminal points ...
(i made some very instructive animated GIFs of all of this, but apparently we can't upload GIFs... SIGH)
Entry guide: step 9 of 12

i perspective—distorted the flattened planks and gauges...
Entry guide: step 10 of 12

hard to see in the non-animated version, but i duped that and stretched the lower one 104% taller...
Entry guide: step 11 of 12

Ctrl+click top layer, then SHIFT+Ctrl+click the second, taller layer to get the poor-man's 3D effect area.
Then i put on a motion blur to fill that area in the lower circuit layer.
Entry guide: step 12 of 12

I also darkened the resulting motion blur, and the duped it many times and flattened - to get a solid mass, witch i then cropped with the mask from the two perspective circuit layers.
This left some gaps - so i used the polygonal lasso tool and selected from point to point.
Then B for Brush, Alt+click to select the right brown colour, and Robert is your father's brother.
final result
