I really love this idea. I think it would be great to have these types of "cases" while traveling. Perhaps for a camera or other digital equipment to avoid getting them stolen. I would use a beat up old book that looks cheap. Great way to deter a thief.

As with the book safe, there are a couple things you can do to make this more stable; I used a sturdy liquid glue like PVA (Elmers would work too) and put several coats on the inside along the cut edges of the book where the ipod will fit. This makes it a lot more even inside, and also keeps the book together a little more. If you want this to be a really sturdy case, you can drill holes (through text block only, not covers); insert screw posts (you can get these at scrapbook and craft stores); paste on back cover; and paste in magnets for front cover closure (you can inbed these a couple pages down in text block and under a couple of pages glued to front cover). I'm even makeing mine with a little compartment inside to hold my headphones when not in use. I will post when I'm done :)

Looks really cool! Do you have to keep the book held closed somehow so the iPod won't fall out?
