machined an iphone5 just as a bit of a fun project







I blacked the engraving on the back to make it stand out more





then I got pressured to put it on ebay by some friends lol

the details on how it was made

I first borrowed a friends phone and drew an exact copy in autoCAD, then I used cambam to generate the code then mach3 to machine.

ive got a denford triac vmc, with 6 station atc and coolant flood

hope people like my project

Very well done.

Do you have to wear an aluminum foil cap for protection when you use it?  

John Champlain

nice work Andy, can you get it off contract on any provider....

thanks, you sure can

Looks nice.....maybe make a bunch and sell them as paperweights?

Rich

Well, at least it is more durable than my phone!!
How hard is it to play "Angry Birds" on it?  (***taking my own tin-foil hat off now***).

VERY, VERY nice work, what kind of engraving tip did you use?

Scott

love it!

Andy this would have to be the coolest and most funky project I have seen for a long time. Hey. What would a New Zealand CNCer have to do to get his hands on the drawing so he can make one?

Would make a nice case or case halves if you could get a real phone inside it.

Willing to share the code?

thanks, john
