What this is

It's an old-school rotary phone that I converted into a mobile phone. It's a legitimate, working mobile phone, you can make calls with it and has a battery life of a few hours. Carrying it around is fun!

Why I needed this

I didn't. Why would anybody need this? There's literally zero need for this. It's just fun.

Special considerations

Oh, there were plenty. Have a look at the iRotary Saga for details.
