$0 perfect case for my Libre

capidamonte · 08-28-2010, 09:28 PM

Lots of folks making cases -- mine is based on my old Japanese dictionary: basically, it's just a box.

Some cardboard, duct tape, a ruler, a utility knife and about an hour. I'd have rather used gaff tape, but I'm out, so I used duct.

Cut in two identical folding pieces from the corners of an old, thin but firm, corrugated box.

Measured everything 1/16th of an inch over, and tightly taped. Slides in and out with just a little bit of friction. Now I'm not worried about just tossing it into my bag. Small, close-fitting and doesn't get in the way when using it. I might add a frog to keep it closed.

Awesome! Believe it!

Where do you buy duct tape for $0?

I found mine in the drawer.

Maybe it wasn't my drawer.
