Make a Protector for an iPhone
Due to the touch screen on the iPhone, it can be easy for your iPhone's screen to become dirty or even scratched. Because of this, it is a good idea to get some sort of screen protection for the device. If you don't want to pay the money for one that is custom made for the iPhone, you can make your own using a universal screen protector and a sharp object, like a utility knife.
Instructions
1. Purchase a universal screen protector for PDA and cell phone devices. This is a thick piece of plastic that fits over the screen of your device allowing you to still use its touch screen features while not having to worry about smudging or scratching the actual screen. These can be purchased online, as well as in regular neighborhood retailers that sell PDA, cell phone and iPod accessories.
2. Purchase a sharp object, like a utility knife. This will be necessary to cut the screen protector to match the dimensions of the iPhone's screen.
3. Lay the universal screen protector over your iPhone's screen. Use a soft writing utensil like a marker to make lines on the protector at the top, bottom and each side. You will need to use these lines to accurately cut your protector to match the dimensions of your iPhone's screen.
4. Use your sharp object to cut the universal screen protector along the lines you made in Step 3. You will be left with a screen protector that is accurately cut to only cover the screen of the iPhone, and not the buttons on either side of the device. You can remove the portions of the universal screen protector that you cut off and use what you have left to apply the protector to the iPhone's screen, keeping it safe from danger.
