Dynamic microphone preamp DIY?

[gnu]

Since line-in works on my nano, but mic input does not, I need a cheap, small preamp that brings my mic to line-level. I don't want to buy anything, but I got lot's of old devices with almost any type of transistor, resistor etc.
I searched the web, but I couldn't find a working (simple) one anywhere. Can you provide me with a plan for a preamp? I doesn't need to have good quality or be stereo.
Any suggestions?

I've built a few of these for lab projects.  Generally a pair of 741s or better opamps in series does the trick.  INA122 or similar if you don't mind spending 2-3 bucks extra.  Not sure if this is ideal, but I've had good results.

You're not going to be able to build one of these with salvaged parts though.

Ah crap..
OK, I'll have to buy some opamps...

I looked through all my salvaged parts and I found a tl082 opamp - now I only need a simple preamp...

I don't know what kind of parts you have sitting around, but here is a recycled preamp. http://sneaktime.net/2007/03/13/homemade-preamp

OK, I made a small preamp with one transistor.
It didn't work until I realised that my microphone wasn't a dynamic one at all - it was electret!
Knowing this, I made my preamp work!!! But it has lot's of noise, so I think I'll build another one with an opamp in it.
