The door

Back to some metal working. Every refridgerator needs a door and I decided to embed the hinges to the phone's radiator. Angle grinder was needed to speed things up a bit.

These are ordinary hinges meant for cupboard door etc.

For the radiator side I decided to go with screws. Again, soft metal making this task a breeze.

The door was then finished with some pop rivets. To keep the door closed I glued a permanent magnet to it. As the phone's metallic alloy isn't magnetic, I glued a piece of PCI back plate inside the phone to magnet to hook up with.
