A Tote for the Inner Geek

August 18, 2007 |

fpm8zt5f5feuce6medium.jpgWhat can you do with old floppy disks — I mean the REALLY old oversized, bendable floppies? Instructables contributor imanalchemist (yes, you read that right) shows us how he made a dashing tote bag from 18 old 5.25-inch floppies, canvas backing, machine-sewn stitching and recycled tote handles.

Unlike the smaller floppies, the 5.25-inch floppies are much more flexible, so you would be able to fit more than just pancake-thin objects in this tote. Using it as a laptop carrier might be pushing the limits, though.
