A beige box is one of the simplest boxes, aside from a scarlet box. All it is a portable fone 
you can splice into some one else's fone line, gaining you access to their shit.

Materials:
-An old fone, preferably one with the dial pad right on the handset.
-Tape, screwdrivers, scissors, solder and a solder gun, what ever you'll need.
-Alligator clips

Now there are two ways of hooking your self up to some ones fone line. I'll explain both, and 
explain how to customize your fone so it can do so.

First off, I really don't suggest using a fone with the dial pad and ringer shit attached to 
the base of the fone...that'd be queer, get a fone with the dial pad on the hand set, then take 
the cover off incase you need to gain access to the wires in their if you have troubles with 
fone wires...I know, if you're a beginner, those wires can be fucken pricks! If you don't 
experience any difficulties, then ignore this.

The advanced way is to cut the male plug off the fone, then strip the wires. Cut the black and 
purple, or yellow, possibly white wires off, you just want the red and green. Burn the plastic 
coating off the wire with a lighter, and then simply attach an alligator clip to each wire. And 
there you have it.

To use this, all you have to do is find the persons fone lines, either in the front of their 
property in a big Grey metal box (which I'm not to familiar with due to the fact that I never 
fuck around with those boxes, its pointless) But you can get into there and burn the plastic 
off the red and green wires in there then splice in through there. Or you feel like James bond, 
and wanna go through all the trouble you could do this right off the side of their house by 
cutting your way through the plastic PVC pipe and splicing in there with those wires that go 
directly into their house.

The reason why I mentioned taking the cover off the fone is because if you cant solder very 
well, and sometimes fone wire can be impossible to work with, having to burn the plastic off 
and all, I know, tough shit. You could just unscrew the cord in the fone, then screw in some of 
your own wire, like speaker wire or such, then attach your alligator clips on to those.

The second, and by far easiest way of getting into some ones fone line with out cutting any 
wires at all, is by just leaving the original fone cord on your fone, then taking a Philips head 
screw driver, walking around some ones house looking for all their gas meter and electric meter 
shit. There is a little Grey box, it is plastic, has two little doors on it, one is for the fone 
company only, and the second, lower one is for customer service (says telefone interface, 
something close to that)...how Convenient.

You unscrew the screw keeping the box closed. And there will be the terminals connecting the 
fone lines to the house (red, yellow, green, and black), above will be a female and male fone 
plug, the plug its self (male part) Is what goes directly into the house, you unplug that they 
haven't got any power in their inner lines. All you have to do is plug your fone into the female 
outlet...and you have complete access to their line. It is as easy as that.

I don't see what the benefits are of splicing the wire to gain access...maybe you feel better 
about your self-knowing you burned shit to get what you have. But to make your fone capable of 
both splicing, and "plugging" Just cut the male end off the fone cord, strip the wires attach 
your alligator clips to red and green, then strip the wires on the male end (plug) burn the 
plastic shit off like usual, then solder them back onto the cord...so you have both now. Just 
put black tape or something over the bare wire so that they don't touch each other obviously.

There you are, no one should question them selves about the box, is it so simple.
