Step 1: What You Need

The items that you need are:

2 phones (dont use cordless, well you can if you want...)
2 phone cords
4 alligator clip leads
1 300 ohm 1/2 W resistor
1 9V battery
2 phone jacks

Step 2: Connect Your Phones to Wires and Jacks

Okay first thing we do is connect our phone cords to our phones.
Then we connect the other ends of the cords to our phone jacks.

Step 3: First Alligator Clip

Now take one of your alligator clips and clip it to the red wire (metal part of it) on the back of one of your phone jacks.

This part can mess up if your phones work so make sure the alligator clip is on right.

Then take the other end and clip it to any end of the 9V battery.

Step 4: Second and Third Alligator Clip

Now we take another alligator clip and clip it to the other side of the 9V battery.
Take the other side and clip it to one side of the ohm resistor.

Take your third alligator clip and clip it to the other side of the ohm resistor.
Like before now we take the other end of this alligator clip and clip it to the red wire on the other phone jack.

Step 5: Last Alligator Clip

Finally we grab our last alligator clip and clip one side onto the green wire on one phone jack and the other side onto the green wire on the other phone jack.

Step 6: Talk Away!

Now make sure all connections are secure and your phones will work! You can now communicate between both phones

They will work for as long as your wires are so you can span them across your house, or even to a neighbors!

Like I said before you can choose to solder your wires for a more secure connection too.

Hope you all have phun with your own private phone lines!

(Stay tuned for the next instructable which will teach you how to make them ring, this is a bit costly though =/ )
