This little hack is so simple I’m surprised I haven’t seen someone do it before. I needed this for myself when I couldn’t get the real deal for a friend’s iPod Mini, then decided they cost too much anyway.

The novelty of playing with glass pieces quickly wore off, and I wondered how I could make it better.
