For this you will need a tube map (grab one for free from any underground station) and the original Oyster card wallet that it came with to make the template, or you can just wing it.
-
2
Draw around the wallet on to card.
-
3
Cut out the card template.
-
4
Trace around the template on to the tube map and on to some paper, which will line your wallet.
-
5
You should end up with two pieces that look like this.
-
6
Stick the map and paper together with spray adhesive.
-
7
Cut two strips of clear vinyl, big enough to cover the wallet and two more strips which are half as wide as the wallet.
-
8
Place the map in between the two sheets of vinyl and place the two smaller squares at either side, these will hold the cards.
-
9
-
10
Cut around the wallet, trimming off any excess vinyl.
-
11
Pop your oyster card in to make sure it fits.
-
12
And your ready to go. Happy travels!

Great idea! By the way, if anyone needs the template, I found a downloadable PDF of one which you can just print out and use.

Oh I would love to make one of these out of the map for the Chicago Metra! I used to live close and used the Metra a lot, so it'd be a cute little memento.

I got an Oyster card wallet free when I bought my card. Vinyl is a clear plastic fabric, you should be able to pick some up in a fabric store!
