Many years ago, I bought an "x - hands" weslo treadmill, with only one function - speed dial, it has a huge DC motor and a huge transformer, nothing else to invite me do something.
Years after, I got a universal treadmill controller, a nice LCD screen, So I modified this old guy, but still not attracting enough, I wanna run and watch something interesting, so comes the idea of adding audio/video etc.
Finally, I got granny to come to walk....

The metal back panel was from a piece of old PC case.
cut a wood triangle and stick the controller and ipad with velcros
power socket is in the back of the control panel.

It is actually clipped by 2 pieces of Eva rubber, this will absorb vibration and make it easy to take off, also adjust angles to face to you.

Just to test it works well or not, I put 2 ventilatores from PC, they blows well as we are in winter time.
Next when i feel needed, will put a PC fan controller and expand them to 8, then i will able to adjust speed.

The extra handles are from a broken inflated boat, not very strong, just for granny to feel more confortable.
Enjoy the tour to rome watching youtube and walk/run with wind blowing to your face.
