DIY stylus


Hello to all the inhabitants of our sites. Today I will show and tell you how I made a stylus for a smartphone. it homemade It will be useful for artists, designers, etc. If there is no factory option, this homemade product will be a great solution. There are many such homemade products on the Internet, but they are not completed yet. Some use wet cotton wool, others use foil, etc., but they have one principle of operation. You need to use a conductor that comes in contact with the hand. Electricity of the body is transmitted through the conductor and the conductor in contact with the screen produces pressing, moving, etc. But they weakly act or act every other time on a smartphone. And on the tablet in general, zero reaction.

I'm certainly not an artist, etc., but sometimes I like to draw. Well, in short, I forgot my stylus on the train, it was too lazy to go to the store (far), there was nothing to do, and I decided to make a stylus do it yourself. The idea came to my mind, and what if, instead of touching the conductor, connect the power source. There, the current will be stronger, and it may work better. Well then let's get started.

To make this homemade, we need




1. Foil
2. pen
3. Lighter with a flashlight. Namely, batteries are needed, but you can use finger batteries.
4. Scotch tape

Step 1. Connect the foil and batteries










We unscrew the screw and carefully remove the batteries from the lighter body. Now we cut the foil into two parts and fold both parts into a thin strip. Glue one strip of tape to the minus of the battery. We wrap the other strip around the contact and insert the contact to the plus. We wrap the batteries and strips with tape.

Step 2. Case






We insert everything into the handle body. We screw a little cotton on a cotton swab. Then we wrap foil on it. We connect the strips with foil and insert a cotton swab into the body and fix it with a piece of adhesive tape.

Step 3: Test


So, we managed to make a stylus out of simple and affordable materials. The stylus works fine, I did not expect it myself. I did not wrap the end of the stylus with anything. I checked, drawing by force, I did not have any scratches. But if you are afraid to spoil the glass or the armor. Then screw a thin layer of tape on the stylus.But then the stylus will work, not very well, it will work through time. If you do not have foil, then you can use any other conductor. For example, you can use copper wire or aluminum wire. Well, at least in the internet there are such homemade products. I myself did not do them, so I can’t say for sure. There were even options with graphite, magnet, etc. Well, that’s all, if you liked the home-made, we put the likes.

This thing can scratch the screen. All the styluses are made of soft material, and here is the foil.
Is the author just an idiot or does he consider readers an idiot?
Yes, by the way, but they didn’t try to click on the screen with a piezo, the main thing is to choose a gadget more expensive! xaxa
A capacitive (or surface-capacitive) screen uses the fact that a large-capacity object conducts alternating current
If you touch the screen with a grounded, large-capacity object (finger), current will leak
I do not understand, what for the batteries? Do not scratch the foil, so kill the elastic? In any stall of styluses for every taste, choose - I do not want! smile
