DIY iPod mini/nano dock with K'Nex
A few days back, TUAW brought you the lego laptop stand. Today, we bring you the K'Nex iPod dock. The always fascinating and wacky Instructables website has posted a tutorial for building your own mini- and nano-compatible dock. The steps are a bit "here's the picture, go build it yourself" rather than providing a part list and actual instructions, but it doesn't look all that hard to duplicate.
When built, the iPod rests at a comfortable 45-degree angle in the dock which uses the standard included-in-the-iPod-box sync cable. The author also posted a picture of a 90-degree upright version of the dock.
