DIY Friday: French Fry iPod

If you watched Juno and are at all like me, you were probably pretty fascinated by, and nostalgic for, Juno’s hamburger phone. Well, beleive it or not, they also make (or made) a french fry phone. But what’s the point in having both hamburger and french fry phones? Use it to make a French Fry iPod:

Our DIY-Friday stand-by, Make, has the not so tasty project plan. You’ll have to find the phone on Ebay. After that, its all about gutting and glue’ing.

i converted a french fry telephone into a carrying case for my video ipod. i had no good reason to, the idea just popped into my head when i was walking about with my ridiculously inconvenient hamburger phone. why not carry an oversized plastic french fry replica to match the equally absurd plastic hamburger. the build out was the same as the hamburger: gut the phone, cut some openings, fit the gadget, and then screw it back together. it actually works great (the case shields the sun, it has it’s own usb cable ready to go), it just doesn’t fit in my pocket anymore.
