Hi all,
Today I will show how you built a simple and cheap but well looking USB Memory Stick.
You will find here so many instructions for USB Sticks that I will only show you my and give you a short overview over the steps and parts.
Also don't miss to visit my website with more great projects under Steampunk-Design.
The first picture shows all the parts you need for this project.
Sorry for my bad English so I only try to describe the single pars.
Two copper pipes (15.0 mm inside) which you use to fit heater core.
3mm brass tube
0.6mm brass wire
one gear wheel
four M1 brass nuts
LED
Micromesh from an Air Mass Senor of a car
I missed it on the picture you also need an end cap for cooper tubes as a dust cap for the connector
and finally a small USB Stick not bigger than 15mm (width)

Signing UpStep 1: Remove old case and built it new
Open carefully the case from the USB Stick and remove it.
Paint a nice window on the both copper tubes.
Be sure that both windows have the same size!!!
Otherwise they don’t fit to each other when you solder the tubes together.
I use two copper tubes because it's easier to cut the window with a cutting wheel into the open end.
When you use a long tube you must start in the middle and this is more difficulty.
Then I drill some 5mm holes in the opposite of the window and 2mm holes in the side.
