I recently upgraded my beloved iPod and just had to make and print some accessories for it.
So as title says I revived my beloved iPod, upgraded its storage and also modeled and printed some accessories for my iPod. I made a TPU case, a dock using the original cable and a storage box.
Everything is available for free on my printables:
Thank you so much. This inspires me to also revive my classic one day when I have the time for it. I still use it every now and then but the battery life has of course gone down. Didn't know that iPod modding was a thing, hahaha.
My pleasure :) I read about it already a few years ago, but the parts where pretty expensive back then. But now they’re really cheap on AliExpress. Definitely recommend this!
I wouldn't recommend Aliexpress TBH. I highly recommend Elite Obsolete, he sells iPod parts new and old stock (Cases, Motherboards, iFlash Kits, etc.) he even sells fully made pods.
They do, I tried. I wanted to order a HDD Flex cable for another project, but it’s very expensive. I would have to pay nearly 30€ for shipping while the cable costs around 2€ + taxes. That’s one expensive little flex cable. Was also having an eye on those wine red back covers, but even the back cover is 20€+30€ shipping. That’s 50€ just for a back cover… They really have some cool stuff, but with these shipping costs to Germany I guess I will have to stick with AliExpress.
