The Steps To Making Custom Made Usb Drives

By Tammie Caldwell


Ever since USBs have become pretty much a necessity for everyone who owns a computer these days, many people have been wanting to spruce up their thumb drives. Now there are actually stores or people who would create custom made usb drives for these type of people. Now with a few materials at home and some effort, it is actually possible to save a lot of money and create custom thumb drives right 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.

The next step in this process would be to find an outer covering for the thumb drive. Now this is the rather interesting part because this is where one can get creative. This outer covering can be made from practically any material ranging from plastic to metal or anything else.

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.

Now the drill would be used in the event that the covering that he chose does not have a hole where the thumb drive can fit. He would need to get the exact length of the drive and the width as well so that he will know how big the hole will be. Once the hole is already made, then all he has to do would be to just slot the thumb drive in.

Finally, he then has to put some epoxy or some super glue around the hole so that the drive will not come out. Now this is one of the most important steps of them all because without it, the thumb drive may definitely fall out anytime. Once he has already applied the epoxy or glue, then he should dry it using a hair dryer or electric fan.

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.
