How to make a SIM card microSIM own?

Annually in Russia there are more and more versions of American "Aiphons" and "Aipadov", however, however the technologies are being improved, the main problem with SIM cards remains on the pen. Our SIMKs are too large to fit in that slot. But how to be? Go to America and buy a starter package there? Of course not. In fact, there are two ways out of this situation. The first is to come to the official office of the company in Russia and order a suitable SIM-card there. The second option is cheaper and simpler - to purchase a standard package, activate the card (of course, on another phone, as it will not fit on the iPhone), cut it to standard by American standards and boldly insert it into the device like a regular mobile phone. Just today we will devote a separate article to the latter aspect and tell you in detail how to make a SIM card from SIM.

Instructions

Immediately note that the differences between these two concepts are only in size. With SIM, that microSIM work on the same principle and have a similar design. Therefore, all you need is to purchase a suitable starter pack and proceed to "fit" the card to the size of the "iPhone" slot. What you need to do, see below.

First we need to take a small sheet of paper and draw a template, which will further turn the SIM into microSIM. After that, take our card and put it on the same sheet with the template. And it should be put in such a way that the lines on the paper image coincide with the edges of the plastic card - the future microSIM. Then, with the help of the knob, it is necessary to carefully circle this object along the contours. As a result, the lines of the card should be visible on the back of the paper. You can also use a pencil for this, but you only need to use sharpened, otherwise the outlines will be inaccurate, and as a result you will receive a carelessly executed work.

Now turn the sheet and use a transparent tape to fix the SIM on its surface. How to make microSIM by yourself? To do this, take a ruler and use the knife to gently cut the plastic with straight lines.

The next step is to remove the prepared card from the surface of the paper sheet. Here we need scissors (preferably small ones). We cut extra plastic on the contour and do the same with scotch tape.

The final stage

Now our microSIM with our own hands is almost done, it remains only to polish its edges on the machine. Superfluous villi, which has not eliminated the grinder, cut with a knife or small manicure scissors.

Tip

Turning an ordinary SIM into Microsim with your own hands, do not cut large pieces of plastic with a knife. It is better to leave the edges and then adjust them to the slot dimensions than to apply cotton wool or something else as a retaining material or to disable it, cutting the metal layer. Do not rush with actions and remember: before processing, activate the card on an ordinary mobile phone. Everything, Microsim successfully made itself! You can start using it and enjoy the freedom of communication. But for it to work again on a regular phone, you need to buy a micro-SIM adapter.
