So, I've been browsing these forums for awhile, and found lots of interesting stuff. Inspired by the original iDuct post (iDuct (http://www.xsorbit1.com/users/dennx/index.cgi?board=thelounge&action=display&num=1045192251&start=30#36)), I have put together a duct tape case of my own - for my Shuffle. I used black tape and an Apple sticker I had laying around. The case is just tight enough to hold the Shuffle in while still allowing it to slide out easily when I want it to. Additionally, the flap on top keeps it secure while headphones are plugged-in.

Looks really good, except for that writing on the duct tape.It would look better plain IMO.

I once knew a guy that made a necktie, a wallet, and a lady's handbag all out of ducktape. He wore the tie for months before anyone realized it was tape. The handbag he gave to some girl as a graduation gift, and she thought it was so cool that she wore it around until it fell apart. One question though, is it peeling yet?

The only thing that has started to peel some is the Apple sticker. The duct tape is good as new. I don't use the case too much, though -- it was mostly a project to kill time.
