    Haha, great idea. I'm asking, could I send in my own device for this mod?
    My mind says Technic, but my body says Duplo.

    Blueonblack just finished my custom USB order. It is a bit of a beast measuring in at 88mm x 28mm x 13mm haha but it should be good, it sure looks nice here are some pics.

    Thanks very much, just glad the customer is happy with it. As for the size, it is big, but I had to work around the drive itself. Standard width on the PCB inside a USB 2.0 drive is 14mm. This one was 23mm wide and quite a bit longer. The finished product really isn't that much bigger than the internals.

    It did turn out pretty well, I like the way the retention magnets turned out in the separation collars. They're very low-key but still visible and very strong for such tiny little magnets.

    So my guess was right then and those are pretty cool magnets because they're just so tiny. I'll also say it again, would love to see a scratch built wood inlaid PC case once the funds and time present themselves
