you do need to use a female usb cable to get at it, most people have those around though so its not really a problem.

Id paint the cap white so you can put it back on and make it look like his tooth again
[QUOTE=Mattk50;24238426]that was serious. what do you want, a usb helicopter?
(brb adding copter to usb)[/QUOTE]
It just looks like a two minute chop job. Is the USB fastened in there or is it just sitting there?

Should've made it so the metallic cap can be removed to reveal usb.

i used a little metal clip to hook through where the screw hole was for the board and attach it to the backside of the eye, its in there sturdy enough :P

Go for it.
[QUOTE=Mattk50;24238479]the cap with this usb is a bit too wide, maybe i can find a more fitting one for that and use it as a tooth cap.[/QUOTE]
If that tooth wasn't missing in the first place, hiding the cap inside it would make it so much better as it would be very well hidden then.
But finding a material of the same texture might work just as well. (graft it from another part of that thing?)

just gotta find me one around here, is there any way to get one without it taking a shitload of time to ship internationally?
[QUOTE=MTMod;24238218]The last contest was at least a year ago. If the search worked you might be able to find it.[/QUOTE]
I did some digging the other day and found the last contest's link. the thread is 404'd now though.
How do I get my drive open
nevermind i got it
[QUOTE=MTMod;24237577]Well the money is coming from me selling some PC parts for pure profit so I don't really mind. Plus, $20 on Steam doesn't get you much.
Looks familiar, doesn't it?

Added new rule about being original.[/QUOTE]
Ehhh, I never saw that or meant to replicate that. I needed powertools for this one :(
Do I have to make a new one?

I would say yes. You still have three entries, though.
Well I so far opened up my flash drive and was able to wire up a green led which took about 40 minutes after trial and error. The cool thing is, is that I have never messed with a flash drive before. Also I so far used solder, hot glue, green led from an old pc, ribbon cable, and hope.

His looks a lot better than yours though.
Why is it so hard to cut plastic with a utility knife
Honestly MTMod I say lower the prize to like $20 and then use the rest to fund a few more contests. This contest isn't of the $50 caliber (going off the entries).
[QUOTE=MTMod;24239636]I would say yes. You still have three entries, though.[/QUOTE]
Here it is, I put a 40 GB external hard drive into the orange box case. Not my best efforts... But I hate dealing with plastic.

This thread totally lacks creativity. Too bad I lost my old verbatim one, the ones which are smaller than a penny.
Don't lower prize, contest has alreaady started apparently.
I can't enter though, need to get my tools back.

Yeah we'll see how it goes. So far I'm not liking what I'm seeing.
Although it's only day 2. Some really good mods are going to take more than a day.

Your dildo, or flash drive?
I would enter, but I only have one flash drive. And it works how it is. It's the size of my thumb and spins around into a metal cover. I would only mod it if I could make it more functional.
So far, I like the USB stick inside the USB stick on page one for originality. :smile:
