Introduction: Corrugated Cardboard Laptop Case
Hi,
this a 5Euro laptop case project, from corrugated cardboard. Is a "green case" (green dot), all materials is biodegradable.
First I make this project with OLPC(One Laptop Per Child) destination, but I make this prototype for my (big) laptop. Is a perfect case for OLPC: low cost, shock-absorption, easy to make, reusable, biodegradable.
Materials:
- 5mm corrugated cardboard
- drafting ruler
- cutter
- paper/wood glue
I hope you like to make this case, not only for laptop...
