Altoids ipod case with mini speaker

       This case is durable, easy to make, and low cost. I managed to find everything I needed at home.
   I have an ipod nano, so I don't know how this will work for other ipod types, but a nano fits wonderfully into an Altoids tin. A downside of this speaker is it has a limited volume because it was originally headphones; the upside is they fit right into the case.

Step 1 What you need...

You will need...
-an Altoids tin (an ipod nano fits perfectly)
-Styrofoam (you can use packaging from anything you have on hand)
- speakers (from old over-the-head headphones; the speakers snap out easily, or old ear buds)

The speakers aren't essential, but it defeats the point of ipod case with mini speakers to leave them out.

Tools I recommend for this are...
-needle nose pliers
-x-acto knife
-drill or other puncturing device
