INTRO:
|
|
Ever seen those AT&T commercials where the operator is wearing a funky headset
|
|
(handsfree)? Ever want one of those? Yes, well here's your chance!!
|
|
It is very simple to make, and does not take a lot of materials!
|
|
|
|
WHAT YOU NEED:
|
|
You're gonna need a couple essential things, and there are a few optional
|
|
items! Here is a list:
|
|
-phone receiver
|
|
-phone cord
|
|
-screw driver
|
|
-An IQ level of a screw driver
|
|
-extra wire (optional)
|
|
-soldering gun/solder (optional)
|
|
-wire hanger
|
|
-old ear phones
|
|
-duck tape
|
|
-electical tape
|
|
|
|
WHAT DO I DO:
|
|
First of all, gather all of your equipment... If you can't find an old phone
|
|
receiver (the part you listen to/talk in) you can buy cheap phones at walmart
|
|
or something like that! Take the receiver and unscrew the two screws holding
|
|
it together, then take the two pieces apart. You'll see something like this:
|
|

|
|
|
|
Ok, so... all you have to do to make a basic headset is to remove the
|
|
innards of the receiver, and mount them. When you do this, be careful not to
|
|
break the solder! But if you do it can be easily repared. Now, take the
|
|
peice you just removed, and mount it on something, the best
|
|
(easiest/cheapest) thing to use is an old headphone, you can just remove the
|
|
earphone speaker, and mount the phone speaker in it's place, of course, this
|
|
can be tricky, a little ducktape, or a glue gun can come in handy!
|
|
|
|
If you really want yours to look nice (and to protect the wireing) You could
|
|
use the speaker from the heaphone, take it off the headphones, and remove it's
|
|
cover. Now cut the wire that attaches to it, you will notice that it is
|
|
soldered on in two spots, just like your original speaker... you just have
|
|
to solder it on two the wires that come from the mic! Of course, these wires
|
|
are bear, so you may wish to substitute them with your own wire, find some
|
|
(6 inches will do) that is similar, but has some sort of casing, and solder
|
|
it the the speaker, and the mic!
|
|
Now, ducktape this (or glue if you want) to the earphone headset! If you used
|
|
the headphone speaker, then it should fit right back in place! Your probably
|
|
looking at it now and saying, "Yeah it's nice and all, but the mic's all
|
|
flimsy!" This is where the wire hanger comes into place! Simply cut a piece
|
|
to fit from the ear to the mouthpeice, and shape it the way you want it! Now
|
|
attach the piece of hanger to the headset and wire (for support) it works well
|
|
if you use electricall tape to do this, because it looks nicer than duck tape,
|
|
and for this, it holds just as well!
|
|
|
|
CONCLUSION:
|
|
Well, you now have yourself a handsfree headset, they sell these for about
|
|
12-15$ a month, you just made one with a spare phone (or a 5$ phone)!
|
|
Don't you feel proud? I also recomend getting a really long phone cord, so
|
|
you can walk around with your headset. You could always try and personalise
|
|
and/or make your headset better! Here's a real challenge, make one that is
|
|
cordless! hehe... Have fun, and if you think of any real great ideas for your
|
|
headset, send them my way, i'd like to hear them!
