Made an android size one and one for my buddy with an iPhone. Testing for leaks and its all good 2 go :)

Any interest for one? Could calculate costs and probably be around $10 a floater.

Wouldn't Acrylic be better? It's lighter and clearer then regular glass. It's like the viewing boxes at the LFSs. I made one out of acrylic for myself in fact, but I don't use my phone with it. I can float my box in my tank without any foam, not sure if the weight of a phone will make a difference, but you can just increase the height and surface area of the box to increase Buoyancy.

Exactly...Gluing Acrylic is way easier then siliconing glass. A piece of acrylic runs for like $3-4 per sq ft. or something like that.
