In order to listen to music at work I decided to make this. It helps prevent the speaker from projecting into the break room which I'm working from currently and sharing with another co worker.

I'd use headphones but am not allowed.

I used my laser cutter to quickly cut it out. It works really well.

Yes but it's used only by the BIOS and other specialized attention messages(like the incredibly cute 5xSHIFT key press).

A beeper is used for BIOS, if there is a speaker and other ports are unplugged it will play all the sounds from it.

I've had atleast one computer with a built in little speaker in the case solely designed for motherboard messages. It was a connector that went into a socket next to where the LEDs go.

I would kill everyone in the onliners list for a laser cutter and a thing maker... ;)

Zeebs: can you cut polyester fabric in your laser cutter, or would it burn/melt the fabric?

I'm not sure, i'll have to find out, just google if it's possible. It would probably catch on fire.

My grandma used to work at a clothes making place and they had automatic cutting tables for it. Don't think they were laser though.
