turn a trident aegis case into a stand

[tehmanmuffin]

i have a nook color (obviously...why else would i be in this forum lol) that's wrapped in a trident aegis case BUT i was annoyed that i couldn't prop it up when i watch movies

i couldn't find a stand that would stay attached to my nook, let alone when it was in the thick skin that is the aegis case, so i had to take matters into my own hands

i decided to attach that little flipout thing on picture frames to my nook

i trashed everything from an old 5x7 picture frame except the filppy thing and the hinge

i widened two of the holes in that grid design on the back of the case (the plastic part. NOT the silicone) and put some screws through them, then the hinge, and put some nuts on there to make it secure

here's how it turned out (sorry if the pictures suck):

Pretty creative - I like it.

I've been looking at getting the trident case for the Nook Color, and I just ordered one for my phone, so if I like it as much as I think I will i'm gonna grab one for my Nook Color.

Saw this and can say you helped tip the scales in favor of getting the case.

Appreciate the amount of pictures you took, very thorough!
