2018.07.20. One more Flash.

Bought some when Silicone Power FIRMA F80 flash drive, liked it shape, it's a bit unusual but it lied in the box for a long time. Until now, now I decided to use it to modify external look of it and make something new.
The case of it is a bit longer then ordinary but it's not an issue to use it, so the idea was to build one shape with the spring alarm drum from the old alarm clock from the soviet times. The drum is made from brass and has very suitable inner diameter so it's exactly what I need.
Not much copper, few brass screws, several machined parts, then add copper wire, soldering and...
The drum is rotateable by fingers very easy in both directions but extension cable is the must to use the drive. 
Checking, formatting to get ready to use. It's USB 2.0., slow but still useful. Can be disassembled and used as it was until modification. Amm, the drive itself was not modified, take it out and use how you want.
That's all for now.
