How to build a phone?

How can I build a rotary phone prop before tomorrow night? (Handset and cord, don't need the base)

  • My choir concert is tomorrow and one of our numbers is Telephone Hour from Bye Bye Birdie. I have one of the solos at the beginning ("Hi Margie!" "Hi Alice!" "What's the story, morning glory?" "What's the word, hummingbird!" "Have you heard about Hugo and Kim?" That part)so I have to have a rotary phone for that, but no base, because we will clip the curly cords (CURLY CORD=ABSOLUTE MUST) to our skirts/pants so we can move around and stuff. So yeah, how can I build one? I can't find one in any stores because no one uses them anymore.

  • Answer:

    I would call the antique stores first. They should be available. Are you crafty? there may be websites on how to make one out of cardboard. If not just look for pictures of one on the Internet and make it out of a box.

Just move the time period of the "choir concert" up, and dance around with iPhones. Or skype in the whole concert. Who cares. Just stay home and watch YouTube or make snide comments on Twitter.

By the time you finished the specifics and demands here that you need from us (we are not stage hands dear) you could have built the whole thing by now yourself. You know just what you need, so look for it. You know what you want, type in the search engine and do the work yourself
