hi again,
I just thought I’d share how I made a more-realistic shape of a phone when I was a girl. I used a pair of boxes for the bases, empty toilet paper rolls, with disposable plastic cups with holes on the side to fit on either end, and a long tube with sections fastened end-to-end, that had a bumpy texture , sort of like a vacuum cleaner hose, except that they came from a hospital where my brother-in-law worked for awhile. Each end was placed inside each toilet paper roll to convey the sounds of speech. The only problem, at least on my end, was that I needed to hold the tube father inward to make sure it would work, as that hole was at the side rather than directly at the end. :)
