The Hurdy Gurdy-Tron is an MP3 music player that requires no power other than that generated by cranking the handle. I can't take credit for the idea, I met someone with one at the Prague Maker Faire producer's conference. I was very envious so I built my own. Now, when the end comes and the power goes out for good, at least I'll still have my 99 favorite tunes.
The box is constructed from a 400 year old Cedar tree that grew in Melrose Abby until a storm brought it down in 2016.
If you've got any suggestions for good music that should be loaded into the machine, please comment below. And like and share, even if you hate it.
