Just because Apple doesn't make an iPhone 5 dock doesn't mean you have to spend a bunch of money on one. The designers over on the Daily Brick show you how to build your own dock using nothing but Lego, and it actually looks pretty solid. The entire dock takes 42 Lego bricks, and you can buy the kit if you don't have the pieces. We've certainly seen our share of docks before, but this is a surprisingly solid looking (and incredibly cheap to build) dock for the iPhone 5. Head over to the Daily Brick for the full build instructions. Build your own Lego iPhone 5 Dock | The Daily Brick via Hack a Day

Vintage Looking Wall Hanger
I have built a few of these and thought they would be a perfect project for my first instructable. They look great and are fairly simple to make.
You will need: a 3x5 wood plaque (available at Michaels or JoAnne fabrics), a drill with an 11/64 bit and a 1/2 bit, 100 grit sandpaper, acrylic paint (2 colors), drawer pull or small door knob (vintage if you can find one), and 2 8x1-1/2 flathead brass screws. You will also need a Dremel with a cutting wheel bit to trim the knob bolt.Sunday, June 16, 2013
