The Call Comes in the Middle of the Night

MOD PROJECT::: For Back and to the Left, the ultra-secret governmental DJ bureau that I am a member of, we fabricated a nifty communication (pre-cuing) device.

This was an incredibly simple mod, and was even pulled off lacking some fairly essential tools. I simply sacrificed a cheap pair of old 1/4″ headphones, got a donated old plastic phone from a friend, and then it’s basically just a matter of breaking things and cutting wires until you’ve got your headphone cord with two exposed wires (in this case black and white) and the two original wires (still attached) from the handset speaker. Strip em, tie em together, cover the joins, put everything back together, plug it in and yikes, you’ve got a handset headphone.

There are a number of slight modifications that can be done on this build. I just plowed blindly ahead (very against the philosophy of B.A.T.T.L. which is intensely bureaucratic)

End of communication:::
