Fun with Office SuppliesFor some strange reason, my current client has decided to start playing elevator music all day over the speakers. To counter this, I've been using my MP3 player religiously at work. However, it's a pain to have it either clipped to my belt, or laying on the table where I can't see the display easily. So I spent about 10 minutes and built this MP3 player out of some office supplies. I used 2 extra large binder clips for the back, and 2 small ones for the bottom. Then I have 2 ruber bands along the bottom so it doesn't slide around when I press the buttons on the player, and one rubber band on the back to keep the player from sliding off. Here is my MP3 player on the stand. I suppose only an engineer would go to this length to use office supplies to build something that could have easily been bought at a store somewhere.
