Wintergaten Marble Music Machine
By Philip Jamison

An interesting orchestrion used by the Swedish band "Wintergaten".
The first video shows the machine playing, then two detailed videos
on how it works.

A link I got from the video is for an interesting gear program which
will generate a printable gear pattern.  You glue it to plywood and
cut out your own gears: http://woodgears.ca/gear/index.html
