Just a toaster attached to an iPod or similar music player, and all you do is pop the toast in, put on your favourite song, press play, make coffee, etc, and when the song finishes, the toast pops out!

Heh. You can have your toast set at an anemic "Vatican Broadside" (aka "the Slipknot Song") or charcoal "Autobahn." |
|
|
Alternatively, of course, you could adjust the power of the heating elements so that cooking the toast to whatever darkness is prepared always takes the length of whatever tune you want. Two dials that way and, as everyone knows, twin knobs are more fun to twiddle. |
|
|
Oh no, not another slipknottter, that's got to be the slankiest, woa. |
|
|
I'm presuming that the audio drives a thousand watt amp that runs the toaster. |
|
|
unfortunantly [mensmaximus], no, it is not powered by a thousand watt amp, it's just a regular toaster, with a dial so as that you can say how well-done you want your toast, and the toaster adjust the little heating-things accordingly to how long the music is played. |
|
|
Slipknot is ok, so long as you like listening to your personal stereo with earplugs in, and you don't mind the fact that they can't sing at all. |

I wanted to make a mini cd player that looked like a bagel. Although now that I think of it a mini cd case might be a good idea... |
|
|
Mine's broken. It only plays "pop goes the weasel". |
|
|
hmmm. imagine if you were stuck in a traffic jam with that [Worldgineer]. |
|
|
'We gots the cabin fe-vah, we gots the cabin fe-vah!!' |
|
|
Damn my spelling. Google backed me up, and even showed me a picture of a weasel (spelled wiesel). Of course, that just proves that others can misspell as well as I can. |
|
|
wiesels are a protected species. |
|
|
I've seen a wiesel in a diesel. |
|
|
So if the song is really long, like "When the Music's Over" by the Doors, will the toast burn? |
|
|
Like a funeral pyre? heh. |
|
|
Sorry, if you play really long songs, it won't burn, you just set the toaster as to how you want it, and the toaster compensates accordingly. I'm now imagining someone who listens to the whole of the opera getting toast moderately done within 3 hours... |
|
|
<obligatory> This toaster goes to eleven. |
|
|
I get up in the morning bout six A.M.
Have a little jelly, have a little jam
Take a piece of bread, put it in the slot
Push down the lever and the wires get hot,
I get toast.
YEAH, TOAST!
YEAH, TOAST! |
|
|
Now, theres no secret to toasting perfection
Theres a dial on the side and you make your selection
Push to the dark or the light and then
If it pops too soon, press down again
Make toast.
YEAH, TOAST!
YEAH, TOAST! |
|

When the first caveman drove in from the drags
Didnt know what would go with the bacon and the eggs
Must have met a genius, got it in his head
Plug the toaster in the wall, buy a bag of bread
Make toast.
YEAH, TOAST!
YEAH, TOAST! |
|
|
Oui Monsieur, bonjour coquette,
Une croissant? Et vous auvent?
Maurice Chevalier, Eiffel Tower,
Oui Marie, baguette, bonsoir!
FRENCH TOAST!
FRENCH TOAST! |

[skinflaps] Everything is okay, just sit there quietly until the men in white coats come... |
|
|
I liked the 'Ode to Toast', though! |
|
|
[flaps] Was that the Streetband version of the song? I don't remember the French bit. |
|
|
<applause> That was wonderful, [skinflaps]! |
|
|
<more applause for [skinflaps]> YEAH TOAST! |
|
|
Lol.
When reading the title of your post I thought the toast was going to play music, not the toaster :-D |
