You could use a old one which is not connected to power.
If your in the UK or Oz then it would be earthed if plugged into the mains. In the UK you could just remove the fuse so there is no chance of it turning on and cooking your stuff, and it would still be connected to earth.
Ok it's not going to be very big, but big enough to save your ipod, a radio etc
Anyone know a reason why this would not work well as a Faraday Cage??

I like this idea because it's simple, not costing too much. It won't be as efficient as a Faraday cage, because for this, you will need to cover all the micro-wave with double layered aluminum foils and connect them to the metal casing of the micro-wave. A simple modification that will assure best result.
Thank you for this idea Swanny, Steven
