This is a try in the Instructables Wallet Challenge.
Seeing all the "classic" wallet designs made me think: "how I can do a wallet in the other way?" And after ditching the Pentium II wallet I came up with this mouse in my junk. Also I'm motivated by the Instructable t-shirt ;)
And so... the e-vile M$ mouse got a nother life with the "$" included.
Materials:
-A mouse. It should be a ball one. If not you might try to cut out the required hole.
-Some cylindrical object, that as such inside radius that will allow the coins to fall trough.
-Some kind of sticky tape.
Tools:
-Scissors.
-Knife.
-Scalpel (optional, but a scalpel works better with the tape used by me).
-Dremel with a cutting disc.
-A screwdriver to disassemble the mouse.
-Glue for plastics
-Some coins for testing.
-Pen
-Some measuring tool (I've used a calliper).
-Soap and water (optional).

...just do it carefully.
Take out the ball and the ball holder. Remove any dirt found (we won't need it ;). Then dismantle the rolling pins.
The two plastic pieces holding the circut board will easily break. Don't worry. If they would survive later they would be grinded out.

I had a mouse exactly like that, came with a (Very, very, very) old computer, with a Massive, 3GB of HDD and a whopping 450MHZ processor!
(the old computer, not the mouse lol)
