USB Stick Clip

thingiverse

When working in IT, one thing is almost certain: a few USB sticks will be stashed away in your pocket. If these are left exposed, dust bunnies will inevitably take up residence inside. Frustrated by constantly removing this pocket fluff, I created a simple clip and protector for my Cruzer USB sticks. The central post has been slightly expanded at the top to ensure that the memory stick can be securely fastened in place. At first, the mechanism may feel stiff, but with a bit of use, it will loosen up nicely. For added ease, a tiny drop of liquid soap can work wonders in freeing up any stuck parts. To avoid confusion, I've printed these clips in various colors, allowing me to easily identify which stick is which. The end of the clip features a slight spring mechanism that securely holds the USB stick in place when closed, preventing it from coming loose or getting damaged.
