KEV'S CAMBERWICK GREEN MUSIC BOX FROM SCRATCH

Hi,

I have made a replica of the Camberwick Green music box.

It had to be done.

Can you guess what is in it today?

      Thanks, I nearly bought one of those battery powered turntables that jewellers shops use to make it turn, but then didn't bother!

    Cheered me up too Kev! And I've got to go back to School! I was thinking about rotation of your box and saw this. Alas its in China but maybe its here in the UK somewhere? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Creative-Pink-Round-Rotating-Music-Box-Base-for-Kid-DIY-Modelling-Craft-Toy/152749600714?hash=item239095efca:g:iGYAAOSws~pb5M27

    Looks brilliant, you should sell them. Probably a market for those.

    Kev, this looks fantastic. Did you ever publish a build diary for this or any type of plans. I’d love to try to replicate your work. Thanks Stephen.

      Thanks. I didn't do a build diary or plans really. There is fair degree of symmetry though, so it's not to hard to work out. I used plasticard and coloured vinyl for a lot of it.
