Record Player Made from Paper

We love seeing what people build out of paper, part of our preoccupation with downloadable designs. Artist Simon Elvins built this: A "Fully working, manual record player made entirely of paper. To play the record the handle needs to be turned in a clockwise direction at a steady 331/3rpm. The paper cone then acts as a pickup, amplifying the sound enough to make it audible. (Record shown, 'The Sound of Music' 1965)." ::Simon Elvins via ::Notcot
