Maker Adam Kumpf from the design firm Teague in Seattle demonstrates a DIY soft conductive stylus for use with an iPhone, iPad, or any other device with a capacitive touch screen.
We’ve been experimenting with conductive foams and fabrics in search of a middle ground. Fortunately, it’s quite easy to make a soft, conductive writing tool using some pretty basic materials. All you need is a pencil, an anti-static sock (such as this one, with X-Static in the foot area which contains conductive silver thread), and some patience to cut and sew it all together.

Hey, I published a how to last year for a slightly more evolved stylus, and there are a lot of comments with improvements, tricks after it.

Never tried it on the iPad, but I guess it will work like a charm, can anyone test it, we, europeans won’t be able to grab an iPad for a more weeks.
Take care,
