It looks lovely in a very Victorian-London-gentlemen-club sort of way. Beats the tacky plastic or even tackier Gucci and Louis Vuitton covers any time.

cool looking!!! but i like the normal iPod look

what if he wanted to get it out? does he have to break the wood?

it's got to be pretty darn heavy too. i was thinking he was using balsa wood or something really light, but that ipod looks like it would weigh a ton.

That is slick! Perfect accouterment to a wood-grain dashboard. I wonder if the wheel works though?

Original article with a howto guide and more pictures. It's not THAT heavy, that wood is only two millimeters thin.

Mac modding is cool... as long as it isn't taken too far. I put a casewrap on mine, and added an LED in there so I can see the proc fans going roundy-round while it's running. The wood thing looks cool though- I'm impressed!

Everytime i think I have seen the most bazarre things, something else comes along. I must say tho, the attention to detail is very good.
