Introduction: Wireless Charger and Storage Box

Made this to go in my room and charge my phone at night so I don't have to fiddle around with cables in the dead of night. Plus its pretty awesome works with every phone compatible wireless charging. Also works with Iphone if you buy a wireless charge receiver for it (linked in the 2nd Step)

  • Samsung Galaxy S6,
  • S6 Edge
  • Note5
  • S6 Edge Plus
  • LG G4
  • G3
  • G2
  • Google Nexus 4 5 6 and 7
  • Nokia Lumia 920

Step 1: Gathering the Right Bonding Agents (glue)

For the acrylic to wood I used Weld on #16 solvent cement

For the brass hinge to acrylic I used Gap filler insta

For the circuit board to the wood I used Hot glue

Step 2: Time to Order the Components

Bezalel wireless charging receiver for Iphone 6/6plus you would get the one that fits your phone.

3 coiled wireless charger PCB Itain Qi

You only need to buy one wireless charger the single coil has a smaller charge field but cheaper and the triple coil charger has a larger field so it can go through a case if need be, but is more money.

Step 3: Design Your Box

  1. I used AutoCad to design the frame of the box and cut it out on a laser cuter but if you don't have access to one just cut out on a ban saw with out the little fingers.
  2. The top and bottom of the box is made out of 1/8th inch plywood, The sides are made of 1/8th inch blue tinted clear acrylic.
  3. My specifications are 8 by 5 by 1 inches

Step 4: Side Assembly

  • Remove acrylic cover and apply masking tape to the body of the acrylic.
  • Measure sides to see if they fit.

Step 5: Gluing Sides on

  • The stain is optional
  • Now that we know they fit glue on the sides with Weld on #16 solvent cement (link found in 1st step)
  • Attach a clamp to ensure every thing is straight

Step 6: Hinges

  • Use the screws for the hinge to wood
  • Use Gap filler insta for the hinge to acrylic

Step 7: Attaching Coiled Wireless Charger PCB Itain Qi

  • I had attached it using hot glue (copper coiled side up)
  • Remove 3M tape cover and stick the board on it

Step 8: Make It Look Nice

  • I had cut a piece of wood and hot glued it on to wooden dowels as you can see in the photos
  • plug it in to a 2 amp out let and it will charge
