This should really be a post about a DIY project. This custom flash drive stores your data and gives you a post-it note dispenser to write down what’s on the drive.
You can buy the official version for about $30 overseas [here] or you could spend a few hours this weekend and create your own. What you need: Flash drive, wood, post-it note pad.
Step one. Shape some wood to about the size you’d like to make the USB stick and post-it note paper. About 3/4inch wide and 3 inches long.
Step two:Â Cut out a part of the wood block to place the pad of post-it note paper.
Step three: With a Dremel or similar, carve out the slot where the USB flash memory would go. Take your time and size up the cut-out properly.
Step four: Glue in your USB flash memory stick. Wood glue is fine.
Step five:Â Cut your post-it note pad to the same size as your wooden USB stick base.
Step six:Â Put resized post-it note pad on your home brew USB stick.
Done & Congratulations.
