cylinder record player, electric and home made.

Hi there! I like tinkering around with simple mechanical & electrical things. I got this interest from my grandfather, & it’s never gone away. In this video, we attempt to describe a fairly simple home made phonograph cylinder player. Eventually, the video disintegrates into simple fun. Not quite what I intended - but one can never tell! Hoping in any case, that it might give you a few ideas if ever you need to make a cylinder player. You never know! But above all, in April 2020 : keep strong; don’t go out too much, &c., &c. Take care of yourselves. Best regards from a er... ’middle-aged’ man in Birmingham, England! Cheers, Norman. (Born 1944.) Check out Rod Elliotts’ site in Australia: for many, many audio projects, for which Rod has not only designed the circuitry, but also has made available top quality PCBs, so that you can make your own super quality audio modules at really low cost!
