Another interesting use for old Edison records

Post by Silvertone »

This is a more imaginative use of an old record than the usual kitchen clock.

I like it. There definitly was some time spent on this back in the day. I can appreciate it having built a CW (morse code) transmitter in a tuna fish can, and a mating receiver in a herring can as well as wrapping countless crystal radio coils around toilet paper cardboard tubes. I shutter to think how many toilet paper tubes I ruined back then - had I only known! :D
