Geekologie Reader's DIY Cell Phone Charger

Proving beyond a shadow of a doubt that you all are the most cunning, clever and best looking blog readers out there, Geekologie Reader Magnus recently fashioned himself a cell phone desk charger MacGyver style.

As my new phone came with no desk charger I had to make one. The desk charger was fashioned from my old N95 which did not survive the 40degree wash (thanks for that Jo), the better part of an eraser, a broken cigarette lighter and about 30 Royal Mail elastic bands.

Plus, it looks better than anything you could buy. I still think it could use some more rubber bands though. And maybe a stapler.

Thanks Magnus, now how about a docking station for my pager? I know it takes regular batteries, I just want one!
