Wrap the USB in electrical tape. Probably over-kill, but I did not want the stuffing touching the electronics. Also, this thumb drive had a write-protection switch that I did not want locked on accident.

Place the USB in position
Pull small quantities of batting or stuffing material and stuff into the tube, both on top of and below the USB circuit board.
Continue stuffing up to the end of the tube. I used the blunt end of a Bic pen to tamp the stuffing all the way to the deepest part of the tube.

Remember to use a little less at the end so it can taper to a close. Judge for yourself how much stuffing you need to use.
