   It might, let me know how it works for you.

   I typically use velcro strips purchased off amazon and take time to   
   nicely fold in half and fold in half and fold in half until it's a nice   
   bundle and zip it together.   
      
   Now that I'm considering a next chapter of computing life by adding   
   rpi's to the mix, this is an important thread as things I can now   
   consider since it never entered my mind.   
      
   Glad I stuck with usenet and IRC.
