Making Custom Made Usb Drives

By Tammie Caldwell


USBs these days are actually necessities which people need in order to store important data that they have. Of course with it being so popular, many people would actually think of jazzing these thumb drives up a bit. One can actually make custom made usb drives in his home without spending too much.

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.

Of course it is suggested that one would use a screwdriver for this job because it will help protect the inside. Now the screwdriver will be able to help in a sense that it will easily crack open the case. It is more efficient than just using bare hands because if one will use his bare hands, then he may use too much force and damage the inside.

After that, then the next thing he has to do would be to get a little creative and look for an outer covering. Now this part is undoubtedly the most fun part because it is where one will choose what he would want as a new cover. Now one can actually use anything regardless of the material.

Now some of the suggested things to use for this part would be some toys, lego blocks, or even clay if one would like. Of course there is no limit to the things that one can do with this. Now once he has already chosen what he wants to use for his outer covering, he now has to get himself a drill.

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 last step in the process is to use some epoxy or super glue to stick the thumb drive to the hole. To do this step, one has to just slot the drive inside the hole then put the glue all over the entrance of the hole. After that, he should let the glue dry by putting the newly made thumb drive across an electric fan so that the glue will dry.

So basically, those are some steps on how to create a custom thumb drive. Most people would go to stores in order to make these things. However, one can actually save a lot of money and time if he would just learn the easy steps of creating these things at his very home. These steps are extremely easy to do and practically anyone can do it as long as he has some basic materials at home.
