Several years ago we bought a new phone for the desk.  However, we didn't

the phone sitting flat and needed an angled base.  An 8x16 plate of blue

don't miss the blue bricks).

So I was wondering if anyone else has used LEGO elements to build anything • that
has become a household fixture.

Funny you should mention that... I've been thinking I need a big big big
project... something to make up for lost building time.. and I looked
around, thought about building a shelving unit out of lego... thought
about building a few other things.. and I believe.. I have decided on
building a headboard/footboard for my bed.. I can put some shelves into
it, places to show off more of my creations..

I built some shelves and a working phone out of Lego. I bought a regular phone, gutted it, and re-built it out of Lego. It works just fine. It isn't all that comfortable against the ear though, I have some re-designing to do. Silas Ed Jones wrote in (...) (25 years ago, 1-Dec-99, to lugnet.build)
