Hack a Hard Drive into a Working Microphone

Using something that is not a microphone as a microphone should lead to pretty creative results…

Hacking, recycling, these activities, if they are not always the most necessary, are sure to bring you a healthy dose of fun!

So you need a microphone. You could always buy one, or in a pinch I’ve seen headphones used for this purpose. If, however, you want something truly unique, you could build your own using parts from a hard drive and an old paper speaker like “Rulof Maker” did.

I’m not sure what the inspiration was for this, but the end result looks great. After the hard drive was opened up, he disassembled and sawed into the base of the hard drive. This left a portion where the arm can be mounted and set upright.
