I needed somewhere to store my digital collection of Playboy magazines and 128gb flash drives and SD cards were too much money - well over $50 - especially when I could get 250gb 2.5" hard drives for $5 all day long! Since this was just for storage, that was perfect. Now... how to store it? Ah ha! I will put it in my library, but to make it blend it, I'll disguise it as a book! I think it looks pretty good. I modeled this originally off a hard drive I already had, but when the one I ordered for this came in, I found that they were two different thicknesses. D'oh! So I am including versions for both - 7mm thick as well as 10mm thick. These are designed to hold the drive in the middle regardless of the size. For my own cover and spline, I used water slide decals that I printed. I am including the files, although I doubt anyone else will need this specific cover. You can use the files though as templates for your own design.   MyMiniFactory keeps timing out on "large" files uploaded. I'm done trying to upload these files. If you want the decal sheet, you can go to their suck ass competitor here - https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4751827

I am a self-proclaimed know-it-all. I will tackle any project regardless of my experience, or lack thereof. Always ready to learn something new. With over 25+ years experience in electronic repair and 10+ years experience in small engine / ATV / motorcycle repair, there is nothing I can't fix, modify or build. Why a pepper? In case anyone is curious as to why there is a hot pepper embossed into most of my designs... My nickname is Pepper and that little pepper logo is a hell of a lot shorter than "Copyright © 2017 by Derek J.G.
