  At some point in the past i saw in a store small fluffy crocodile. I thought – Now ain't he going to look awsome chewing on a flash drive? The thought faded in the background in mere 10 seconds. But it was not erased.

 My subconsciousness had chewed it up, looked at it from all the angles and when five days ago i saw  a crocodile again it presented me with the result. This time i went for it...

This is something like a guide on how to make for yorself an crocodile/USB extention cord (although you can use any animal or cable you want to).

 

1. Supplies and materials

1.1 Crocodile (very anatomicly wrong)
1.2 USB Cable
1.3 Knife
1.4 Needle and thread
1.5 Yoghurt cup
1.5 Piece of cloth (red for me pleaсe)




2. To work!

2.1 Killing the crocodile.
With a sharp blow drive the „American Psycho“ knife between the crocodile's shoulders. Repeat until he stops to scream.

Then look him in the eyes, if there are like this „x“ then he is dead“.



2.2 Ripping up.
The cable must pass trough somewhere, so with a smaller knife we cut the threads at the mouth an the as...  tail of the crocodile.




2.3 Dentist.
That crocodile had nice but utterly useless teeth (pieces of cloth glued to him). So we cut pieces from the yoghurt cup. After that we'll copy the dental work of the late amphibian and remove the original teeth. 

2.4 Kebab
Cut-Me-Own-Throat Dibbler have the pleasure to pressent you something unique and never seen before! Crocodile on a stick!



Screwdriver actually. It is necesery only if you, just like me have no intention to cut and solder the cable.

2.5 Needlecraft and fashion
You need a needle. A SMALL one.



And colourfull threads.
At furst we sew to the lower jaw the new crocodile teeth (I think i'm going to name him. Offler? Yeah.).




Then we take care of the cable. I belive the photos explain how.




The piece of cloth cut by shape (red for me pleace) we split in the middle for the cable.




With the needle (the small one) we begin with confident moves and steady fingers to sew the cloth that will be the inside of the mouth to the jaws.
The upper is almost ready.



The lower one too.



With strong contentedness (and some pain in the prickled fingers) we begin to sew the crocodile as... tail.



2.6 To the Dentist again
The more observant of you might say – What about the teeth? They are horrible! Indeed. They are. That can be fixed with some heating and bending.




Mind you – the youghurt cup is very heat sensitive. Overheat it and you'll get an ugly mass of melted plastic. Hell, you might have to rip the perfectly done mouth and make new teeth (I'm smart, never overdid it.)

3. Lunch time at the Zoo

We have a hansome fellow hungry for USB things. 



Well, let's feed him then.








4. Closing decrees.

I want to thank mom and dad, all of my friends, run_time for the photocamera and to The Seatbelts for the music.
