Make a stick drive, literally.

The onslaught of technology threatens to degenerate mankind into a species of ignorami, imbeciles, and nincompoops. Fight the trend by going old school, back to when men counted using sticks and rocks. Make a USB stick drive today!

Step 1: Parts needed

Stuff you'll need for a stick drive:

1. A stick* of about 3/4 inch diameter
2. A USB drive
3. Hand saw
4. Hot glue and gun

* Suggestions for type of stick: black walnut gives a classical and refined look, balsam is the most weight-friendly, cypress is good for its resistance to water damage.  I chose maple because of its hardness (however it may soon be banned by Major League Baseball due to its tendency to shatter).

It's fun!! hahaha By the way, in portuguese this joke (literally a stick) dont works. I give you a A+!

you could open the case press it in and hollow the same piece of wood you cut off to fit over the flash drive, so it would be water resistant-a bit.

I'm with nickodemus, but the basic idea is there. I may have to do this now! You have my vote.

Although I was expecting a thumb drive embedded in the stick, this is just as nice. :)
