Build a Light, Durable Carbon Fiber Case for Any Gadget [DIY]

Whitson Gordon ?Build a Light, Durable Carbon Fiber Case for Any GadgetIf you're picky about how your phone's case looks and feels, you can build your own tough, lightweight case at home with carbon fiber.

Cases are a great way to protect your phone (and get a great resale value), but many are bulky, don't fit well, or just don't exist for certain more obscure gadgets. With a bit of carbon fiber, a wooden mold, and a resin to pull it all together, you can make your own strong, lightweight protector for just about any gadget in your backpack. You'll need a good selection of tools, like some C-Clamps, a drill, a dremel, and others, but with a well-stocked toolbox and a trip to the hardware store, it shouldn't be too difficult to do it yourself at home. Hit the link for the full how-to.
