Talking DVD Case = Perfect Kobo Case!

I was inspired by previous posters who modified DVD cases to make their Kobo a home. I personally like the idea of DIY rather then waiting around for something to purchase, and I even had a white DVD case that I knew would look just smashing as a hard case for my baby. It was really easy to do too (resulting in only one minor laceration), with basic tools, I just used an x-acto knife to cut parts away.

One tip: Slide some cardboard (I used an old Rasinettes box lol) between the back of the case and the clear plastic cover before you start cutting, this will keep you from cutting the clear plastic when you cut through the back plastic of the case.

Pictures, for anyone interested...
