Inspired by this Ipod nano case, I decided to try making a case for my iphone out of scrap bike tubes and/or tires (every bike store seems to have tons in back). Here’s my favorite version: the tube goes in the tire, just like on your bike:)

That version’s a bit bulky, so I typically use this slightly svelter sewed-together affair:

    that is one ugly case… must be pretty resistant though.

  2. even though I am no fan of “i” anything, that case just doesn’t suit the relative beauty of the phone.

    Is this a joke?

    It is, without doubt, the least skillfully made item I have ever seen on your site.
