His Name Is Pinocchio
Impulse purchase of the month? A ‘Music Box’ case for my iPod Mini, well made and swiftly despatched by Peter Kinne.
It’s fashioned from wood salvaged from old jacuzzis, and stainless steel reclaimed from salvaged bicycles. The simple locking mechanism - a wood block held in place at the base by a metal clip - is a joy, and the whole thing is just beautifully put together, fitting the iPod snugly. As you can see, it looks wonderful, in a perverse anti-technology technology sort of a way, and it feels wonderful in the hand, too. Last but not least, at around twenty-three quid including P&P, I’ve scored a lovingly produced bespoke case for my iPod for around the same price as a mass-produced ugly thing made of neoprene.
Thanks Peter - mark me down as a satisfied customer.
