DIY Ipod Dock

In this instructable I will show you how I made a charging dock for my iPod Touch. 

I will also give you useful suggestions and ideas for your own dock , or a similar project . 

I hope you can learn something new !

NOTE : This instructable is also appliable to almost any other iPod or iPhone model.

(I admit that I am not the first one to come up with this, and there are other similar docks out there, even out of Lego)

BTW
I'm not the first one to come up with this, though I did come up with it myself... :)

you could also use a soldering iron to melt the dock adapter and cable together.

First of all, great project, looks really clean and practical :)
This might be a stupid question, but where can I get a cheap dock adapter? (my iPod touch 2G didn't come with one of those..)

[fnunes]

it's actually 4G, the latest.
