About: I'm an inactive K'nexer, I used to be one of the most active ones, but I have a lot of other things to do. I try to post a new instructables every few months, but sometimes it takes a while for me to think of …
In april when I first joined ibles, I made an Ipod dock the first day I came. It had a lot more features than the rest, but it was SO ugly! So, after looking at Tmbo17932s, I made on that's similar to his that fits my needs.
This one is completely different, but looks a lot like his, so I am giving him credit.
Enjoy!

Step 2: The Back
This part is a little add on that makes it a lot sturdier.
Connect a red connector to a yellow/ gray connector with a green rod, then add a green rod to the red connector and a white one to the yellow one. Do this twice, then connect with a green rod
You should now have both of these.

Step 4: Ipod Touch Sideways Mod
If you have an Ipod touch, and want to put it in sideways, add this onto the end.
Step 5: Put It Together!
The most fun step!
Make sure that the front and middle look like this, so that connecting them will be easy. I forgot to show how to make the little piece with the two red connectors, but it's not that hard.
Reposition the back so it can connect, then just clip it on!
