Creating 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.

One very important thing to take note in this step is that sometimes one would be needing a screwdriver. Although there are no screws found here, the outer covering may be hard to take off with just bare hands. So with a screwdriver, he will have an easier time snapping off the existing cover without damaging the inside of the usb.

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 things that most people would use would be plastic toys, some clay doh, or even lego bits. Of course one can actually get other things that he may use depending on his own artistic mood. Now once the outer covering has been gotten, the next part will be a little bit challenging.

In this step, one would have to get a drill because he will need to open up a hole if for example, his toy does not have a hole on top. Now he will be needing a lot of measurements like the width as well as the length. Once he has already drilled the hole, then all he has to do would be to put the usb in.

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.
