YYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAHHHH!!!

Edit: i found some old DSL filters that seem to be perfect for making the adaptors. would these work? they are using powered phone cable and are designed to have a phone cable plugged into, so i'd say yes, but i'd like verification.

That is nothing. I built my first beige box with instruction older than me.

When I made this post I was unaware that 8 years ago was 2001. I looked up the textfile I used and it IS older then me.

The first beige I made would be around 18 years old if I still had it.

I made my first beige box around three years ago when I bludgeoned a lineman in the face with a hammer and took his handset.

I made my first beige box with the spit, blood, and bile of the 1982 Oakland Athletics.
