B has been making gadets out of discarded electronic parts, things found in bins and second hand sales and tucked away in the basement, and turned them into something wonderful. He has made a modern day state of the art battery operated ghetto blaster which doubles as a universal phone charger for when you can't get access to a socket.

His schoolfriends are delighted, the boys like grooving on the move at lunchtime and the girls charge their mobile phones and call him a genius. He is making another one for a friend.
I'm not sure how he came up with the idea; it's since been transferred to a green cardboard suitcase and now a plastic tub...he's been scrounging old computer speakers and stereos and was making more, but now has moved onto trying to make a Tesla coil with the next door neighbour...
ReplyDeleteHe tells me he took apart a heap of electronic throwaways and saw a speaker, and wondered if he could make one...and so on.
