Old Phone Lines


Ha! Check this out!


This is the old network interface for the phones.


It's in a bedroom. I'm not kidding.


It works (but only after it's had a day or two to to dry out after it rains) like this:


Run the wires from a utility pole that's about to fall over, through the branches of a 50 foot Maple, and tie them to the side of the house. Then, drill a hole through the window sill, screw the terminal posts to the trim, connect a bunch of wires, and you're good to go! Oh, I forgot - send some extra back out through the hole, down the outside of the house, back in through the open Study window so it won't close properly, and connect another bunch of wires to another terminal block screwed to the baseboard. Then just staple all the station wire to the baseboard cap.

You go dude! Just lick your fingers, grab those terminals, and I'll ring you up! It'll be fun!
