Ghostly Gramophone: Proof of Concept by grumpyrobot

I designed this old school Gramophone as a proof of concept. Printing just a .20mm thick diaphragm, with the help of a sharpened needle you can play any spinning vinyl.
The sewing needle vibrates from the spinning vinyl. That vibration is transferred to the diaphragm, which emits the sound you hear.
This design is just a proof of concept. I bet someone with better design skills than myself can put together a full working version.

Disclaimer:
The needle will potentially damage your records. Do not use with your treasures. I picked up some cheap Beethoven from Goodwill for $1. I recommend the same.
Needles are needles. Therefore sharp. I recommend a good set of pliers to assemble.
