I love space pens, lifetime warranty, very durable, well built... sound familiar? Anyways I daily cary Nik's Minimalist Wallet, and with my last wallet I had a space pen attached to it since it's a perfect pocket-able size. I looked online if there was any sort of solution, but there wasn't. So I decided to make my own using an old amazon gift card and duct tape.
As you can see the length of space pen is the exact height as the wallet. An important note is this design only works when the pen has a clip. I have had one or two times where the clip falls off and so the pen falls out but, considering the materials used I'd say it's super reliable
The duct tape strip usually doesn't get in the way as I never put any cards in front of it.
To make this I just made an inside out duct tape loop the size of the pen, and then wrapped that.
I'm hoping in the future to try and make one out of something like fabric or leather, but I've never worked with any of that stuff so I'm unsure how to approach it.
