!!! INSTRUCTIONS NOW AVAILABLE!!!Awhile back I had a couple of hours of build time (shocking but true) and a project that has been on my mind for some time was to create a nifty dock for my iPhone. As I began to create this little contraption I said to myself, “How could this be a bit cooler and more functional?” The answer was to make it a rotating dock so I could watch movies and apps in landscape mode.
I think my LEGO dock turned out quite well, if I do say so myself. After the click, you'll find video demonstrating the dock in operation.
Simply click to play. Below the video is a link to more detailed pics that can be viewed on my Flickr feed.
Some additions I am considering:
- Non-slip surface on the bottom – slides around too much (any recommendations for official LEGO parts I can use?)
- More stable base with reduced parts
- Motorized rotating device – gonna require a bit o' engineering on my part
- Instructions to build your own – although the pics may provide enough info
So what do you think? Leave me a comment below and let me know. Be sure to check out my other LEGO/Apple amalgam: the LEGO Apple iSight Camera Mount.
