This CD Speaker is a great place to store your CDs, and your personal stereo too. It starts life as an old shoebox! The bass speaker, or subwoofer, is made by drawing a circle on the lid of the shoebox, using a margarine tub. The circle needs to be slightly bigger than the base of the margarine tub. Cut it out. Next, brush PVA glue around the edge of the circle on the inside of the shoebox lid, like this. Stick the margarine tub in place by popping it through from the inside. Then let the glue dry. Next, you need to stick the lid back onto the shoebox. Pop a piece of masking tape along one edge on the inside... ...and another piece down the edge on the outside. This will give it a great hinged effect and leave plenty of room for your CDs inside. To make the CD shelf, you need a washing powder box that'll fit inside. This type of box works perfectly but you may need to experiment. Cut off the lid and the back of the box so that it looks like this. Before you stick the box inside, put a CD inside the shoebox and measure where you should put the shelf, to allow the CDs to fit comfortably. Once you've made your measurement, stick the shelf inside. The CD separator comes next. This is very easily made by just cutting a thin piece of card. Just click here to get our template. Once you've made the CD separator, stick it carefully onto the shelf, like this. As well as the subwoofer there's a smaller speaker, too. This is made from a pop-in lid, with half a ping-pong ball stuck onto it. Use plenty of glue to stick the smaller speaker to the front of the speaker, just above the subwoofer. Extra security latches are next... ...they're just made from small pieces of card. Stick on small pieces of hook and loop fastener to keep the latches closed. Put a little hole in the back of the speaker so that the headphone wire of your personal stereo can be threaded through. Now here's how to make a microphone stand to hold your headphones. Get hold of a kitchen roll tube, and make two slits at one end. Taper in the end and secure it in place with masking tape. Next, you'll need a toilet roll tube. Make two semicircles in one end, like this. Make sure that one semicircle is deeper than the other, so that when the kitchen roll tube is placed on top... ...it will sit at a slight angle, like this. Stick both parts together and scrunch a kitchen sponge into one end. Stand the whole thing on a small plastic bowl. Paint the microphone... ...and then the speaker. You can pick any design you like - perhaps to match your personal stereo or your bedroom... ...or how about this retro wooden design, made using wood-effect sticky-back plastic! Or how about a space-age boom box, if you're into thumping drum and bass. Or a double-shelved version, like this?
