Making Custom Made Usb Drives

By Tammie Caldwell


Nowadays, a USB has become one of the main necessities because it is actually important for one to store some of is digital data. Now with this necessity, many people would actually like to have custom made usb drives to make their drives look beautiful. Now instead of going to a store to make one, it is actually possible to create one at home.

Now to do thins, one has to first get out his thumb drive and take out the existing case that it has. Now he cannot make a custom made thumb drive if the case is still there. So before doing anything, crack open the existing case and take out the raw thumb drive.

A suggested thing to do would be to use a screwdriver instead of bare hands to split open the case. Now do take note that there are no screws on thumb drives but it will be help to snap open the covering. With a screwdriver, it will also be less likely that one will damage the internal part because he will not need to use too much force.

Now after one has already done this, then the next thing to do would be to think of a new outer covering. Now this is where one can get a little bit artistic. He can actually decide on whatever he would want as an outer covering as the material will not really matter.

Some popular things that are used as outer coverings would be old toys, clay, or even legos. However, one does not need to limit himself to these things as he can get as creative as he wants. Once he has already chosen an outer covering for his usb, then he may go on to the next step and get himself a drill.

Of course he must use the drill to drill a hole into the toy just in case there is no hole that can be found there. Now the important thing here to do would be to measure the length and the width of the thumb drive in order to know how big the hole should be. Upon making the hole, one just has to slot the drive inside.

The final step in this process would be to now just glue the thumb drive to the hole. Now one can do this by just putting the glue at the entrance of the hole and just wait for it to dry. One can do this by placing it in front of an electric fan or a hair dryer.

So if one has a little bit of an artistic touch and does not mind putting in some time and effort, then he can make his own custom thumb drive. Now the great thing about this is that it is very cheap to do. No longer will one have to spend a lot of money to make a custom thumb drive. He can just make it at home already without having to go to any store.
