Tiny, Slot-In Retro Media Center For IPod Nano
Written by admin on February 29th, 2008 in gadgets.
This little case-mod is so sweet it almost seems that the parts were made for each other. Mark Irwin took a Dremel to an old 35mm slide viewer, adding two speakers into the capacious case to make a standalone, slot-in media center for an iPod Nano. A quick Google reveals that this was indeed a match made in retro-heaven:
ipod Nano – Width: 2.06 inches
35mm Slide Mount – Width 2 inches
With 1970’s manufacturing tolerances taken into account, that amounts to exactly the same size.
At the risk of gushing, this is probably one of the neatest, smartest little DIY projects I’ve seen. Plus, it has Zoolander in it.
