the parts for the usb is an old hard drive i dissasembeled for the parts, and a thin USB stick, that is 4mm thick


The Tools


i used
-tin snips, to cut through the metal for the casing and the pcb curcuit board
-hot glue gun, to join the parts together

I cut 2 pieces fo the casing that are 4mm wider than the usb and 4mm longer than the boddy of the usb.

thier was a joining piece that was a right angle i used for the back with two pieces i folded to start the sides of the casing. i glued this to the botom piece of the casing.

i then cut a piece of pcb cuircuit board for a side panale and glues a micro chip onto it for efect. i then stuck it to the starting point of the side panal

for the other side i used some flexable cuircut wiering what was ridged enough to bend ro fit around the side of the casing, i then glued it on the other side of the casing.


Fitting the USB

i put some hot glue into the botom of the casing, and placed the usb onto it, leaving enough room so it could fit into a usb port.

i then filled the rest of the casing with hot glue, and fitted the top piece of metal to the casing fulley enclosing the usb.
