Telephone Handset Microphone

Step 2Prepare the case.

Prepare the case.
With your pliers, break out the little tabs on the bottom of the case so that the battery holder can lay flat on the bottom.

Once the plastic tabs are removed, drill a 3/16" hole in the side of the case at a right angle from the phone jack. This will be for the toggle switch (see picture)

Next drill a 15/64" hole in the bottom of the case opposite the phone jack. This hole will be for the 1/8" mono plug (again, see picture).

Take the 2-5/8" x 2-1/4" piece of material. This will be the lid to your case. Drill a 3/16" hole in your lid approximately 1-1/4" inch in from each side (see picture). Measure your material for better measurements and better results.
