Wooden USB keychain (looking for suppliers)

[cd]

Hi All,
I noticed these in the latest Rutlands catalouge and thought they might make nice and slighty different xmas presents but thought £25 for a kit was a bit steep. So has anyone seen them for sale anywhere else ?, preferably a bit cheaper.
TIA

Got to agree, £25 will buy you a 1Gb USB stick. :shock:

I know :shock: Saw some 2gb ones in costco last week for about £30.
I did wonder about getting a cheap one stripping the plastic cover off it and seeing if I could turn something to fit it in. Might have to have a go at chasing threads though and thats not something I've really got on with.

WHy not buy a couple of 128 or 256 second hand off ebay for a couple of quid and see if you can do anything with those?

Depends on how many you are looking for. The 'mini drive' towards the bottom of this page might be a good starting point if you wanted a reasonable quantity.
