Nice. Somebody has got time on their hands.

I have had an instructables page open for a fortnight on a tab waiting for a chance to do this and post it to much fanfare in the "cool things" thread.

 

Not much point now, is there?

 

(as if I'd ever have the time anyway...)

 

EDIT: http://www.instructables.com/id/Floppy-Disk-Pen-Holder/ FWIW, though it's pretty straightforward.

I'm all over this...

I normally use them as a Frisbee but that is a pretty good idea

Damn, one of our teachers gave me a box full the other day as they couldn't bare to bin them... they landed in the bin pretty quickly from there

I made one for my desk at home a couple of years ago. You know, before floppy disks were cool! I made one for the office more recently. A teacher took it in to an ICT lesson and the kids didn't have a clue what they were!!

That's a ready cool way to use coffee coasters old removable media.

I love Instructables - I always think I am going to make something - I never do but just looking at the ingenious things on there really cheers up my day.

I can't believe I am actually looking for floppy discs now! I have found three which isn't much use to man or beast, is it?

Any excuse to use the Dremel and some cable ties

Ooooo, was wondering what to do with the 4 boxes of floppy disks that someone gave me...
