Failed Attempt: Sushi USB Flashdrive

I have a certain love of changing and modifying jumpdrive housings. Call it a passion. So, I tried to make one that looks like sushi! Too bad I have no clay working skills...

Just in case you are looking to make a Sushi USB Flashdrive, here's not how it isn't supposed to turn out.

Hurt, I was fishing in the rain and I slipped. But instead of hitting the water I hit the metal boat rack

My mom did that, except she smashed her ankle between the boat and the dock.

Eh fimo isn't that good for stuff like rice textures, it's great stuff for cartoonish smooth stuff though... Why not get some rice, sterilize in something like bleach (Iodine won't work, it'll make the rice black) and cast it in clear resin... It'd look like glass sushi... Hum, been a while since I made a new drive case, I'm not allowed to recase my coursework one, unless the cover breaks so it's only the little 256's I have loads of for it, but they're nice safe prototyping models since most never worked, I considered making a really old 128 in to a heater for coffee or some such, it has a fault and makes massive amounts of heat, unfortunately it managed to melt and consequently hot glue itself to a computer already...

You have 128s??? The smallest I own is a 512 and I hardly ever use it... I have a 1gb that I don't use, and a 2gb as my main one and a 4gb that I put movies on, and I plan on getting a 16gb for movies ($10 on sale on newegg.com :D)

That 128 was pride of the fleet some time in its life... I ended up pilfering the LED off the end after a while... my new 4GB does nicely because it's mostly word documents and such, plus any night of photos I do are likely to pas by on it but it's never a worry because my phone has 8GB of memory inside...

8gb on a phone?? Danggg, son. That's crazy. My phone has 32mb xD But I'm getting a new one soon, because we're switching to Verizon.

Hey, the idea was good, and besides, your Fetus Drive was so good that no one will ever say anything about this one!
