Ok I know this has nothing to do with the megadrive but I’m still waiting for it to arrive in the post.

As I was bored and had nothing better to do I ripped apart an old stereo and turned it into an mp3 speaker system.

The old speakers in the stereo were long gone and most of the insides were rotten old boards held together by the cobwebs some spiders had left as a parting gift.

So anyway it was opened up, inside gutted and then given a really good clean :)

I then took some old portable mp3 speakers and started to disassemble them so as to get to the juicy insides!

Afterwords I placed the speakers in some acoustic foam and stuck them in the old speakers position.

I then hooked the battery pack up to the main board with the switch and aux in cable and glued them in place.

I cut out a new hole at the back for the batteries to be placed in without having to unscrew the thing each time and also a little hole was put in the back for the on switch!

Now I have an old skool ghetto blaster that’ll play from any mp3 player :) ghetto blaster1

dude, how do you do this sort of thing?! it’s nuts, i have the electronics skills of a badger with arthritis, so i’m not surprised i can’t do this but it’s all just stuff i never think to do.

also, if you ever need the aspirations to be raised…
