- XenophobicAlien, on 10/12/2007, -13/+247Yep good idea,
1. get a date
2. Pull this out of your pocket to pay for dinner
3. ???
4. Go home alone - MOJIRA, on 05/17/2008, -3/+149I'm going to do it right n
- Billiam627, on 10/12/2007, -0/+134Dugg for telepathy. How did you know I had a keyboard?
- wernst, on 10/12/2007, -0/+71Yes, I see no potential problems getting through airport security with a circuit-board wallet.
- vheissu, on 10/12/2007, -2/+68Well, at least you wont have to build in a place to put the condoms
- Mootabolife, on 10/12/2007, -4/+65I see a mouse in your future.
- drmangrum, on 10/12/2007, -2/+42I thought the same thing. Other than pure geek factor, why?
Circuit sheet wasn't designed for multiple folding/unfolding. It would be only a matter of time before the embedded wires started poking out, tearing up your ass, pants, chairs. - jgrgg, on 10/12/2007, -4/+37any1 else notice that they censored the last few digits on the dollar bill serial #???
i understand why they censored the credit card but a dollar bill???? - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -2/+35They missed blurring the credit card in one of the images. It's nearly to small to read, but a little snooping will find you a larger image. I think it's a good rule of thumb to never take a picture of your credit card and put it on the internet, never ever ever.
- fuckingusername, on 10/12/2007, -1/+30I like mine it really works can't wait to sit on it.
http://files.myopera.com/web4me/albums/230794/wallet.jpg - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+23Hmmmm, I`m looking at 2 or 3 busted keyboards in my pile right now....
- jchip, on 10/12/2007, -0/+22but its a keyboard wallet
- offwithyourtv, on 10/12/2007, -3/+24I second that. And I'm a girl. Besides, it'll go nicely with my microprocessor pendant necklace.
- Mootabolife, on 10/12/2007, -2/+21Eat your heart out Louis Vuitton.
- tdogg241, on 10/12/2007, -1/+19Toecutter and evilTak, thank you for showing me the error of my ways. I have gained valuable insight into what a waste my life has been up until this point, solely because I use a wallet. All that time spent opening and closing that thing and finding things in an organized fashion instead of fumbling around in my pockets through all the Cheetos crumbs to find a wadded-up bill. I've wasted my youth.
FWIW, I also have a messenger bag, or as I'm sure you'd be quick to point out, a man-purse. - ifonly, on 10/12/2007, -0/+17Crap wrong reply, digg down.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+17Making wallet out of keyboard = bad idea for so many reasons.
- digitalme, on 10/12/2007, -0/+15You desecrated a Model M??
- retawd, on 10/12/2007, -0/+9This is a good beginning. I think most people on Digg should destroy their keyboards!
- jchip, on 10/12/2007, -1/+10While the tutorials method does leave the wallet vulnerable to a fatigue failure, you could avoid that by just making squares of the circuit sheet. Layer over it in packing tape and the packing tape would take the folding and unfolding action.
I _must_ make one of these... Now to find a keyboard that isn't in use right now. - zieak, on 10/12/2007, -2/+11On going through airport security: I've been through DC, Seattle, Anchorage, and a few other airport security checks without the slightest hassle. But I did worry about it the first time though.
- evilTak, on 10/12/2007, -3/+12If you use condoms you've carried in your wallet, you have more bad news coming:
http://www.healthology.com/teen-health/dyk3352.htm - nreynolds, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8@ offwithyourtv
"I'm a girl"
- ok, now we know we can't trust anything you say. - Javlington, on 10/12/2007, -2/+10http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c324/Javaranks/Afbeelding190.jpg
There's really nothing to it - and it's a good idea indeed to refrain from filling it with big money :P - newslang, on 10/12/2007, -2/+8Not good if you carry a condom in your wallet...
- jeremy66158, on 10/12/2007, -4/+10Is it RFID radio signal proof?
- somelifeguard, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6You guys are ***** pathetic. Why would you think that a wallet like that would lose the women and friends. Have you ever seen a duct tape wallet? Although you might think that it would give off the impression that you are cheap and trashy, when people say it the results more towards people being interested, or thinking that its cool. it can even be a conversation piece (1 dollar says someone says lmao idiot you talk about wallets??)
you guys remind me of battle.net noobs. they play, lose a game and say "ROFL YOU NEED TO GO GET LAID YOU HAVE NO LIFE!!!!"
predictable. and yes, i have a life, you just suck at warcraft. congrats.
the wallet is different, it looks cool and high tech, kinda like a James Bond wallet.
its sad, cuz you guys complain about the whole stereotypes about techies/gamers/ninjas yet your the ones who are creating it by acting as if embrasing technology is impessive. If techies really are the anti-women that we think they are, then all of you diggers can't say crap about how a wallet is going to make you lose women in the first place, cuz you cant get one.
after all, what would impress a girl more, you using your keyboard to make a wallet, or you using your keyboard to play World of Warcraft and surf p0rn all day. - zieak, on 10/12/2007, -3/+9My girlfriend *loves* it when my projects get dugg! I don't know about the rest of them lady things though.
- etx313, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6Let me know when the tutorial on making pants out of this stuff comes out. I'll wear the ***** out of those.
- zieak, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5Some keyboards have two sheets on top of each other and you can easily get a wallet out of them. Others only have one circuit sheet though. Even if that keyboard has the 10 key portion it probably will not be enough.
- awol21, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6Obviously with the cards, but why blur the serial number of the dollar in the picture?
- eastbeast314, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6I've been taking a RAM chip on my keychain through security for a few years now.
- nsjoker, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4A neat and practical way of telling your date that you have no interest in sleeping with her as you bust this out whilst paying for her dinner and movie.
- igneon, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4Warning: Don't try with a Model M.
I know because I cut myself. Badly. :( - lemon404, on 10/12/2007, -2/+5I prefer my Duct Tape wallet... I'm not sure I would like to use a "clear" wallet !
Very sexy indeed... - acid55, on 10/12/2007, -2/+5I literally just threw out about 15 old keyboards sitting around not being put to good use. Oh, the irony.
- blankharddrive, on 10/12/2007, -10/+13Man, i'm more man than any of you. Anyone who carries around more than a matchstick and a small pebble is a friggin chick.
I dont even wear clothes anymore since i was 10 and learned to be a man. - Hayaemsay, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3It will go well with my fake ID and home-printed money.
- sobriquet, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3@jgrgg
It's possible he's protecting it from wheresgeorge.com abuse. They block any bill serial #'s that are shown publicly on the web. - glittalogik, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Wonder how well it holds up in the wash...
- mjsfl, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Excellent. I was getting tired of hunting down cows and killing them every time I wanted to make a leather wallet. This seems much less messy.
- digitalme, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3I think I'd take your wallet, then burn you at the stake.
That way I'd have the Model M wallet, but without desecrating the keyboard. ;) - cameronhartman, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2This will void my xbox warranty somehow.... i just know it
- Cyber_Akuma, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3So, if I made one out of an IBM Model M keyboard would other geeks want a wallet like mine or would they want to burn me at the stake for destroying a Model M?
- gameforge, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Either he's very excited about the http://www.wheresgeorge.com/ thing and doesn't want anyone else to register the bill... or, he doesn't want a cashier and/or angry drug dealer to haunt him on Digg.
- gameforge, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1You WHAT?! I saw a Model M go for $150 on eBay recently, after the Digg article about very expensive keyboards... and all you got was a scab. No offense of course, I've done way stupider stuff than that... but if you have any other Model M's that you don't want, you should sell 'em and go buy a nice wallet.
- Urusai, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1So, elitism = correctism?
- undersky, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1I made it according to the direction, right after I read this article when it was made front page.
needless to say that, i did not have a keyboard to write this comment anymore. i just came back with a new keyboard from bestbuy.
the wallet worked like a charm though. - yoble, on 10/11/2007, -0/+0Wow! I was waiting for this for a very long time...
- isuzix, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Wow, mine turned out pretty good. I like it.
