    This is basically what I want for my windows tablet to hold my wacom stylus:

    My tablet is maybe 2-3 mm thicker than the height of a USB port so the above pic won't do- its base is too fat and I'd prefer attachment via USB rather than adhesion.

    Has someone already made something like this? What would be the easiest way to achieve my idea for someone who has no rubber/metal or 3d printing materials and can't build anything on his own?

    Anyway to jerryrig what I want to make with some common household items and perhaps some kind of strong adhesive? I don't want to use the average sized flashdrive- its too long and sticks out of the tablet too much. Are there any USB flashdrives that go parallel to the side of the tablet instead of perpendicular?

    This below may work as a platform to hold the pen loop/pen claw but I don't know where to find a secure pen loop or attach it

    This is my stylus: It's fatter than a pencil but maybe slightly thinner than some pens
