Hi. This is my first instructable here, and I'll show you how I did my Book Flash Drive. Also, please be easy about my vocabulary, I'm not American... but I think you should be good with the pictures.
Oh, by the way, I've checked if this idea is already posted here and I found nothing.

This is those who want to: - Show something curious to friends.
- Avoid getting their flash drives stolen (if the book looks boring)
- Have a bit of fun while bored, if the book is goods (like a jokes one)
- Make your book a bit more useful.
- Make this just because yes.

In short terms, this one is pretty easy to do. You may only need:
- A tiny book.
- Flash Drive (medium sized, not squared like those Kingston Mini Fun, and not larger than the book of course)
- Something to cut, like a craft knife.
- A small stick
- Hot Glue/Super Glue.

Step 1Opening your Flash Drive.

Opening your Flash Drive.
Take your USB stick and look how can it be opened. Maybe you'll require to use brute force, by opening it with your craft knife or whatever. Just make sure you don't go too far, as you may break your USB stick.
At the end, it should look like in the picture.

that hole in the book looks a bit ugly. covering its edges with something (paper, tape...) will be much better. 4*s

I dont think its a good idea to have the weight of the book relying on the flash drive it could damage your computer, or worse, your flash drive
