Ways to recycle floppy disks, floppy disk pen holder

So with a slow day at work, I noticed my office was a bit of a mess and my dinky Pen Holder wasn't able to accommodate my Sharpies and other office supplies. With an excess of floppy disks collecting dust, I decided to do something about.

I basically took 5, 3.5 floppy disks and taped together with package tape. I then drilled a few holes into the corners of the disks and used twist ties to hold it in place.

It is a great way to use old floppy disks without just tossing them in the garbage, I may build a handbag for my girlfriend and a body suit as well.

Now you can say your pen holder can store pens, supplies, and 7.2MB worth of data.



Also this post reminded me of a question someone had asked a few weeks ago, they seriously asked me this:

"Hey Phil, I think my external drive is getting heavier as I put more files on it, should I be worried?"

This looks exceptionally useful, but is it possible to provide a video or MORE pictures so I can really see how it`s used? Thank you.

Brian should definitely be worried, but not about his drive...
