Create Real working iPod Costume(s)

Step 8 The control console (Blue iPod only)

Since the Blue iPod was made to have someone inside, I thought I'd give that person greater control of their costume.  So I made a console to retro fit an Mp3 player, in this case, an iPod classic.  The key is to cut two pieces of equal length.  One serving as the base, the other will form a "V" shape, both pieces glued together will form the console.  At the center of the console, I cut out a square a bit larger than the music player to allow it to be pushed in abit.  If you size it right, it should be a snug fit.  I used duct tape to create a bit of friction that keeps the iPod classic in place. 

Since I placed the mp3 player in the center, I may eventually entertain cutting out some space for a drink holder and even a slot for a few choice candy bars.  What a life...!!!
