Lego Old Skool Boom Box
I also made a stop frame animation of it where you can see it in action:
Here’s my fully-functioning* boom box which has a multitude of moving parts, switches and dials. Once you pick it up it is hard to put down, so I think it doubles up as a cool stress toy too.
The best part is the tape eject mechanism, which actually works and took me a looong time to figure out.
It also includes:
A radio tuner wheel which moves the station dial
3 graphic equaliser toggles
A volume control knob, a Left-Right balance slider and two other moving dials
A mode select button which when pressed, depresses the previous selection
A carry handle which folds completely flush
A stowable FM Radio antenna
A battery compartment (3x batteries included!)
A headphone and auxiliary port
Free MixTape!
It doesn’t look like it from the outside, but because of all the moving parts it is a challenging build on the inside, especially to fit it all in.
Hope you like it.
* Doesn’t actually make any sounds.
