Subject: Make-shift Red Box

If you know someone with a red box and want one but don't want to go through
the bother of creating one, you can just "make" one using this method:
1) Go to Hill's, KB Toystore, K-Mart, etc and purchase a toy called
a Yak Bak (a small recording and playback toy about the size and
shape of your ear *grin*)
2) Use a knife to cut out the "SAY" button
3) Put the "SAY" button back in at an angle (so you can get it back out
again)
4) Get your friend's red box and push the modified "SAY" button and record
about $1 worth of tones or so
5) Replace the "SAY" button backwards (so you can't see the letters)
6) Secure the button with tape, etc. (you might not want to secure it
permanently cuz if the batteries die you need to re-record the tones)
7) You now have a red box.
Hope someone finds this useful!
