After finding the dock that originally came packaged with my first iPhone model, I decided it should be put to actual use.

At first, I wasn’t sure what to do with the ancient piece of technology. I began by dusting away what appeared to be months of lying without use. Then, I did what many would have done. I took a drill bit to it and carved it into a useful iPad dock.

It would have been more aesthetically pleasing (and easier) if I would have used a dremel head rather than a drill bit, but I was using one at the time for building my dining table..so why not?

All of the tech is in working order, even the audio out function.

I feel like there is an amount of charm with it being so beat up vs. the usual cookie cutter sleekness with apple products.

Again, not very pretty, but functional. Took around ten minutes. Enjoy.
