Cheap padded case for your Electronics

This shows how I found a way to get a good padded case for some of my electronics, I wanted a padded case because I recently lost one of my PDA's to the unstoppable force of gravity. Now I have a Really nice looking paperweight.

My reason for modifying one is because of the price of a new padded case.

It is really simple to do, yet not many that I know would think of it.

This is my first one of these so please be kind.

Step 1Getting a cheap case and modding it.

Getting a cheap case and modding it.
All you really have to do it look for a broken or AS-IS product on ebay that comes in a padded case. In my case it was a remote trainer for a large dog. I ended up paying $16 total, plus I found out that the AS-IS training collar just needed new batteries, so I ended up selling it for $50. I haven't even started and I am already money ahead, not bad at all.
