In this document I'm going to teach you how to make one. ________ (Supplies): ______ (Tools:) 7/16 Hex Driver Wire-cutters/Strippers Soddering iron & Sodder Knife Lighter ______ (Stuff:) Small fone w/in use light and modular jack 2 Aligator Clips (1 red and 1 green) Modular fone cord Heatshrink tubing ___________ (Building It): _ (1):Cut off one end of the modular fone cord and remove some of the casing plastic. You should see 4 wires, 1 red, 1 green, 1 yellow, 1 black. _________________ (Modular fone cord) _______ | | | ____ | |(Cord) | | | | | | | | | | | |_______| | | | | | | | | <---4 wires, 1 red, 1 green, 1 yellow, 1 black | | | | | | | | | | | | _ (2):Strip the red and green wires, and cut off the yellow and black ones. _________________ (Modular fone cord) _______ | | | ____ | |(Cord) | | | | | | | | | | | |_______| | | | | <---2 stripped wires, 1 red and 1 green | | | | | | _ (3):Cut off one end of one of the aligator clips and strip it. Then repeat that with the other clip. _ (4):Sodder the end off the green aligator clip to the green wire, then do the same with the red clip. _________________ (Modular fone cord) _______ | | | ____ | |(Cord) | | | | | | | | | | | |_______| | | <---2 stripped wires soddered to the ends of aligator clips, | | 1 red and 1 green () () | | | | _ (5):Shrink the heat sink tubing around the exposed wires now you have the finished fone cord. _________________ (Modular fone cord) _______ | | | ____ | |(Cord) | | | | | | | |_______| | ____ | |(Tube) | |_______| | | | | | | |Clips| | | | | | | |_ _| ( ) ( ) || || || || _ (6):Plug the cord into the fone, you have just build a beige box. ________ (Using It): This device can be any of several Bell switching apparatus that include terminal sets (i.e., remote switching centers, bridging heads, cans, etc.) To open most Bell Telefone switching apparatus, you must have a 7/16 inch hex driver. This piece of equipment can be picked up at your local hardware store. With your 7/16 hex driver, turn the security bolt(s) approximately 1/8 of an inch counter-clock- wise and open. If your output device is locked, then you must have some knowledge of destroying and/or picking locks. However, we have never encoun- tered a locked output device. Once you have opened your output device, you should see a mass of wires connected to terminals. On most of your output devices, the terminals should be labeled "T" (Tip -- if not labeled, it is usually on the left) and "R" (Ring -- if not labeled, it is usually on the right). Remember: Ring - red - right. The "Three R's" -- a simple way to remember which is which. Now you must attach the red alligator clip (ring) to the "R" (ring) terminal. Attach the green alligator clip (tip) to the "T" (tip) terminal. Now your box is basicly a phone of the building the box you attached your box to. You can ease drop on conversations in that building, make free calls etc. Its up to you what do do with your box.
