I built a simple thing called PotsBox.

It brings old analog phones back to life — kids can pick up a real handset, dial friends, or call services like weather, news, or story time.

You can even have a local line that asks which kid is calling and tells a family story.

You don't dial the outside world, you dial your own world — you can connect as many friends as you like, and dial rooms in your house or friends all free and easy.

It's still early so I'm looking for folks to help test and offer ideas. It's fun for antique phones.

It’s free to use. AI services work like a payphone — drop a coin when you want to call.

Instructions on how to use cellphones to a landline? Vintage bear phone that works

I got this bear phone! But I have no idea how to call it. Does anyone have the same item and have any instructions without a landline? I am not sure what adapter to get / how to operate. Any information would be helpful. Thank you!

Some finds over the last few months from estate and church sales. Getting quite the collection. Also found the Jacob Jenson phone in the back of one of my cabinets. Don’t even remember having this or where I got it from, but is ultra sleek and cool.

Hi all, the locksmith popped this open but I still don’t have a clue how this should be removed from the wall.

There is one screw down the bottom but no way that’s the only thing holding it on.
