DIY Cell Phone Holder - For Your Car
The other day on Lifehacker i saw how you could make a car cell phone holder out of a binder clip. It's used to hold your phone up while driving in the car.
I basically followed the same directions. But after bending the wires i decided to wrap them with yarn instead. And then so the phone didn't slip, i used Goop glue, which has similar consistency as rubber cement or hot glue.
It held the phone better then i thought it would.
So i tried it out while driving in the car and it worked fine. But it does depend what you are clipping on to. All i had in my car was the thin air vent, which didn't give much support and the phone wobbled a little.
But overall i think it worked really well.
It's a cheap and easy way to see if you like using a phone clip, before buying a fancy, expensive one.

You should get the nobel prize of the year, not all phone holders are the same and i cannot put something on my windscreen, i will be fined and your method wins everything and everyone, thanks for your simple and yet effective solution.
you can use shrink tubes instead of yarn.
