How to: Make CD/DVD cases with old 5 1/4 floppy disks

This "how to" idea came just in the right time as we  were wondering what to do with all the old 5 1/4 disks we had accumulated over 2 decades with everything from C code, dBase III+ databases and even some old DOS versions and  a copy of Windows 1.x. But, without a floppy drive to read  keeping them didn't make any sense. Moreover, most of them would be unreadable or would give us the "Track 0 bad" errors by now.

So, the big idea from Instructables is to use the jackets of these old floppies to make cases for DVDs and CDs. Great! Now all we need to do is to find enough DVDs to fill the 2000+ floppy disk cases we are going to make.
