Step 1Take the lid off the iPod display case

Take the lid off the iPod display case
Take the display case (the case your iPod came in) and open the lid, there should be a plastic piece with two prongs on it inside that held your iPod, take the plastic piece out and put it to the side. Now with one hand grab the lid and with the other grab the main part of the plastic case. There is a piece of sticky clear tape creating the hinge, peel the plastic off the main part (but not the lid). Now that the two pieces are no longer attached we can go to the next step.

**The reason there is duct tape at the hinge in the picture below is because I peeled the tape off the lid, which you shouldn't do.

I just made mine without holes or anything, just a place to keep it safe. Took me less than a minute. Great!
