Improv: Tripod for Cell-phone (made From Plastic Bottle & Lamp)
i want to do a few instructables with photos, for which i need one
more hand... or :some quick&dirty ´tripod´. so i whipped that one together, really in notime: MATERIALS:
you need some plastic-bottle and some sort of lamp with a flex-arm TOOLS: knife, scissors
Cut Bottle:
get a bottle
cut off the lid-thread
cut 2 slots in the remaining neck (the thickness of your cell)
cut out on the main-body a shape that will take the lamp-shade, see below
Push Bottle Over Lamp-shade
fit the custom-cut bottle over the lamp-shade
Assembly & Use:
in the 3rd picture is a cell-dummy (i only got one cell to take the photo with).
adjustments:
_ angle: just flex the arm of the lamp
_ height: use some object to pose on (books, chair, box, etc)
_ angle lateral: move the bottle sidewards (bottle and lamp-shade work like a hinge)
thats it.
thanks to all.
