I want to build several backup installs of lion. The only trouble is, I already have Lion installed. Is there a way I can still make DVD/USB installs, after already having Lion installed?
 
You can use e.g. Carbon Copy Cloner to create a bootable backup. Not exactly the same as creating an install disc but does the job.

I don't want to clone my drive or anything like that. I just want an install disk, so I can put it on my 4GB USB and then not have to worry about it anymore
 
If you want to install it on a different computer, just sign in with your iTunes account and download it.
