Seems so obvious that it's bound to have
been done already - but couldn't find. Had
drawing lying in note book for nearly a year,
then saw those fake log memory sticks, so
thought I might put up my own effort. See
scribble below.

BBC News: Finn creates USB 'finger drive'
http://news.bbc.co..../europe/7949018.stm
"A Finnish computer programmer who lost one of his fingers in a motorcycle accident has made himself a prosthetic replacement with a USB drive attached." [zen_tom, Mar 18 2009]

Wonderful picture. [+] for the idea. |
|
| |
What about slip-on coves for memory sticks? You could have amputated fingers, bits of trees... I'm sure that [benfrost] could come up with a Bobbity good one... |
|
| |
I could get one for my missing finger for when the fingertip lighter goes out of style. |
|
| |
That drawing doesn't look at all like any of my fingers... |
|
| |
[BJS]- new name for idea - "Finger Flash
that is guaranteed not to look like BJS's
finger" |
|
| |
Send me a photograph of one of your
digits, and I'll make a new drawing, just
for you, that DOES look like your
particular finger. |
|
| |
I also do Heads as Wheel Chocks, if you
fancy seeing what you look like wedged
against the wheel of a truck on a hill. |
|
| |
[xenzag] I might take you up on that offer (as long as you promise not to make fun of me or something). |
|
| |
I was imagining that the USB plug would be on the other end of the finger, so it looks like the finger is sticking out of the computer, but thats just me... |
|
| |
Really BJS as if I would make fun of your
finger ! - pop it in the post tonight, and
I'll get to work on the conversion as
soon as it arrives. |
|
| |
As for the finger facing the other way -
I have a drawing of that option, plus few
dozen others, but the nail seemed to be
such a natural subsitute for the
connector, and you also get the gory
bone and flesh this way. (did I mention
that it twitches and flexes when it's
ready to eject?) |
|
| |
now you can see how dull it is facing
this way, instead of chopped off, and it
saves me from putting up one of my
other drawings, which depicted a much
hairier finger complete with naff ring. |
|
| |
The one on that link looks like it's a thumb, not a finger. |
|
| |
Perhaps it got mixed up with the thumb drive photo. |
|
| |
There is an other piece of human body that just YEARNS to become a flash stick. |
|
| |
See last link, then look at my illustration. |
