These things of wood and brass

A child of nature, technology and style.

A child of nature, technology and style.

Being gentlemen of a more refined sense of style, I can admit to you that co-writer Mark is probably going to mess his pants when he claps eyes on this particular marriage of science and nature.

It’s an iPod Mini, modded to create a wood and brass finish.  It’s case is Australian Red Cedar, the clickwheel is Camphor Laurel and it’s held together with brass plates and screws (no glue!).

Creator Josh Darrah also created the accompanying dock and FM transmitter to match.

The overall effect looks droolworthy.  If only my Shuffle was as svelt.  Mark may already be chopping down a tree outside his house, someone should keep an eye on him.

You can check out the complete set of construction pictures on Josh’s flickr.
