Cool USB-Drive Modification (My First Instructable)

Cool USB-Drive Modification (My First Instructable)
This is a cool modification using a pack of cards, some foam, and of course a USB-drive. Although it's a bit bulky, your peers will still think that it's pretty cool.

Step 1Gathering the materials (easy peasy lemon squeezy)

Gathering the materials (easy peasy lemon squeezy)
This is the easiest of the already easy project.

Materials Needed:

. Obtain an empty pack of cards. The brand doesn't matter, it's your project so choose your favorite brand. =)

. A USB-Drive...Duh.

. Any type of foam, prefferably foam that's easy to cut and lightweight, but again your choice.

. P.S- make sure that the USB-drive fits into the deck of cards.

Not a big gun or cards fan; however, this is cool. I just thought of this problem with custom USB covers, someone needs to come up with a way to cover the connection, from damage. Mine always breaks off and the connecting part of my USB never has gotten damaged, but there probably is good reason USB providers include connection covers.

You could cut the deck in half, and glue the cap in the other half of the deck. Meaning you will have to pull apart the whole deck to access your USB stick.
