How to make a DIY amplifier holder for iPhone from a teaspoon yourself

I bring to your attention a wonderful idea on how to make an unusual stand for a phone from an ordinary metal teaspoon with an additional function: sound amplification. It’s very easy to make such a homemade amplifier stand in home conditions in a few minutes, time and effort are minimal. However, it must be remembered that the sound gain will not be very large, only 5-10 dB. This, of course, is not a stereo system with high-quality speakers and you will not be able to throw a party, but you will feel a slight difference. Plus, the unusual design of such a stand will give your desktop a pleasant twist.

Here's how the author-amplifier holder suggests us:


To create an amplifier stand, you will need:
- one teaspoon;
- protractor with a ruler;
- felt-tip pen
- pliers;
- pliers;
- And a little patience, because the first time to bend the necessary angles may not work.


For work, it is best to use the cheapest teaspoons, as they are made of cheap mild steel, which is easier to bend.

We begin to create our stand.
Before starting to bend a spoon, it is best to make markup, it will help you make accurate and accurate bends.
First of all, we’ll make a small side to hold the phone from the front side. To do this, measure 1 cm from the edge of the handle of the spoon, put the mark with a felt pen.


We use pliers to bend the edge of the handle at an angle of 120 degrees. Check the angle using the protractor.


Now we measure another 4 cm from the bend, put a mark. At this point we make a bend at an angle of 80 degrees.


The stand for any phone or tablet is ready.


Now we are improving the stand for the iPhone: a sound amplifier.

We measure 3.5 cm from the place of the last bend, put a mark, twist the spoon 90 degrees clockwise and then bend it 110 degrees.


Thus, the cup of the spoon will be at the speaker level of the iPhone and reflect the sound from it in the right direction, due to which the effect of sound amplification is obtained.
