Project CPU Schlüsselanhänger

All you need for this project is a diamond tip drill bit, a metal saw or a sharp knife, a rasp and lots of patience and not to forget ... a CPU.

First of all you have to drill a hole for the key ring through the PCB of the processor. On most processors the PCB is made out of ceramic meaning that you cant use a regular steel drill bit to drill through it cause its way too hard. Even with a diamond tip drill bit you will need some hours to drill the hole (in case of my K6-2 i needed about 4 hours). You always have to keep in mind that ceramic is strong, but can break easily. So don't put too much pressure on the drill while making the hole or your precious processor may crack.

After you have drilled the hole you can start to remove the pins on the lower side of the processor. That should be very easy. You can even use a sharp knife if you don't have a metal saw at home. Please don't cut your fingers off. ;-)

Last but not least use a rasp to smoothen the lower side of the processor since the remainders of the pins may not be comfortable in your pocket.

Then simply put a key ring through the hole and enjoy your unique "geeky" keychain. Believe me, it will draw a lot of attention. ^^

Happy hardware hacking!
