That one you've got there is very long.

I've made about 4 or 5 of these in total (most lost or broken at this stage, some given away as gifts).

Here's one of my earliest incarnations.

It's from the guts of one of them science gallery usbs that were floating about a year or two ago (small enough in terms of capacity).

Shaved out the inside of a 4x2 block and squeezed him in, and then used a cutout 2x2 as a lid.

The lid wasn't all that secure so I ended up using a flat across the 2x2 and 4x2 to secure it during transit.

I have no idea where it is now, these are old photos, I seem to have misplaced it.

If anyone is considering making a Lego USB but doesn't want to risk damaging their USB stick, the News of the World is giving away free USB sticks on Sunday. More info here.
