This DIY cotton candy hard drive concept has been developed on behalf of an anonymous Chinese engineer. The design makes use of a discarded hard drive, a plastic bowl, a soda can, several bike spokes and a random metallic disc.
While the steps involved in this process may be slightly treacherous for some, the idea is perfect for tech enthusiasts who have remaining stacks of hard drives, and especially for those with a sweet tooth.
Swaths of pink cotton candy have been whipped up amid the featured stacks of digital equipment. Various sweets can be swapped in here however, dependent on the taste buds of those who attempt to replicate this complex at home project.
