Accessories Lego Dock

Never too old for legos. I can try to make directions for mine, but I am pretty busy with grad school starting up soon and moving and whatnot. I'll do my best to get some sort of documentation up.

Wow! That is FABULOUS!! I also am looking forward to pics of your Incredible doc and a how-to. I bet it can be made so that it can charge the Incredible in a case as well. Perfect!

Oh yea just make it a bit wider and change where the plug sits. I actually cut the hole. The plugged in the cable to the phone. Filled the hole with epoxy and then mounted the phone in the right spot and supported it for 3 minutes till it got hard then the connector was in the exact right spot. you could easily do this to account for a case or extended battery (when those come out)

I just converted a random Lego knight ship I had sitting at my desk into a dock. Cool idea and thanks for the inspiration.

Here is the write up I made in PDF format. There are probably errors and difficulties in the directions, but this is my first lego manual. I will be around for any questions.

Pics or it didn't happen....

apresutt · May 11, 2010

so I actually dreamt up improvements last night, mine now has an eject button and a power button extension since it covers the normal one. I need a new hobby.

I didn't post before, because it looks goofy without the phone, and I can't take a picture of it with the phone as my only camera at work is the phone itself. Maybe later today I grab a buddy to snap a pic with their phone. That is, if i can someone who isn't sick of me talking about my Incredible =).

Here is what the dock solo looks like:

dock solo 2

I'd like to get a right angle micro usb connector so I don't have to jack the phone up so high. So far I've also been refraining from using any pieces not from the kit, just cause i like the design challenge.

BTW I finally found the links for where the original dock had made Endgadet and the Digg front page from a few years back.

rainierez :
Any chance of getting more detailed pictures of each side, top & bottom. :cool:

Thanks

rainierez · May 13, 2010

Here are some from back in the day. Only the left side has changed.

If you build it they will come!

So creative, awsome job!

rainierez · May 13, 2010

The legos have shipped and I think this cable will become a major part of the build.

Nice work. Hopefully I have enough legs to make one portrait and one landscape doc.

I just hit the big clock on the Sense clock/weather widget and it comes up automagiclly

wedgemoose · May 14, 2010

Really??? I know i'm being petty but that brings up the "desk clock" screen. then i have to hit the computer icon to get the screensaver function you have. You only hit the clock on the main screen once???

thanks by the way. I'm just trying to figure this phone out.

Ok just put the icon for deskclock on your home screen and it will default into the fullscreen clock when launched.

Yeah, Same here. My wife sold all my son's Lego's... He's only 25 years old.... I mean really!!! Why would she do that? :mad:

rainierez · May 26, 2010

Sorry all. I got the legos in and started to build it but I just can't keep this phone. I have had horrible luck with the service and the Verizon support isn't helpful. Since they won't be able to replace this one till next month i need to return it before i get locked into a 2 year contract.
