  • MAKING A MUSIC BOX FROM SCRAP METAL - HARRY POTTER MUSIC BOX
    I was in a museum and saw a music box that I really liked. I decided to make one for myself that would play the main song of Harry Potter. It was very complicated to design and manufacture due to the simple machines. The work process took more than 2 working weeks but the biggest job is tuning the tuning fork.
    As I show in the video, the first pine box broke so it became unrepairable. I don’t have much knowledge of the wood industry, but the wood was cut quite easily by the tool.. :D

    That's neat! I'd like to someday make a cylinder (or whatever that part is called) for a music box for a specific song I like, although I certainly don't have access to those tools.
    I can't imagine a 3d printed cylinder would sound that good. Although, now that I think about it, I believe that disc music boxes might have been made out of non-metal materials. The problem with that is that the music boxes that play discs are probably expensive, unlike the cylinder ones, which would be easy to snag parts for.
    But the cool thing about disc music boxes is it's easier to change songs for.

    • @Matthews_Tools
      @Matthews_Tools  Год назад

      Thanks!
      Yes really. they all have their advantages, I think it's better if you can change the cylinders and play other music on it.
      if you make such a music box, I recommend that you design it well, unfortunately I know in hindsight how many mistakes there are, but it was not bad for practice!

      @@Matthews_Tools You can tune it with a needle file. Search the tooth which is nearest to it's correct tune, but below it, than carefully file the thicker part on the bottom side until it's in tune - the tone will get higher. Than you can tune the other teeth in the same way (if possible beginning withe the octave or the fifth of the first). If you have to lower a tone you can put a little spot of solder on the tooth's bottom side - and of course file it partly away if the tone is too low.
      If you have average musically ears it will not be a big problem.

      you need to know what size cylinder you want to put the sheet music on. after that you have to multiply it by Pi and you get the extended plane of the cylinder. then you have to edit it proportionally, so that the length of the melody matches the length of your extended plane.

    Too bad the box is completely out of tune. But I think if anyone wants to build such a music box for it's sound he will manage to tune the teeth properly. It's not that complicated.
    By the way: Pine wood is strong enough for the housing of the box. But you have to work with woodworking tools. The tools you use are not sharp enough and spin not fast enough for properly working with wood. So you scratch the wood instead of cutting it what leads to too much pressure on the material (and a poor finish, too).

    • @Matthews_Tools
      @Matthews_Tools  Год назад +1

      I tried to tune it, I made it heavier, but unfortunately it didn't help much. in my opinion, the comb is too wide and less thick compared to its proportions, because of this it has less stiffness and you can mostly hear the deeper ranges.
      unfortunately, I do not work in a carpentry workshop, so there are no wood tools available. I used an aluminum tool, which is also sharp, and I spun it at the highest possible speed.

      ​@@Matthews_Tools I think for a more in-depth understanding one would have to experiment and try different solutions. But this would cost a lot of time, and if you don't plan to specialize in making music boxes it wouldn't pay. The mechanics of the box are splendid, though.
      Regarding the wood: I understand and I didn't want to grumble. But working with metal and working with wood are two different worlds each with specialized tools. It's possible to achieve nice results (what you did) with the wrong tools, but sadly it will ever be a compromise.
