Charles Hind has built a beautiful music box.  The metal is georgeous, the
wood box is full of inlay.  This was his second(!) music box project.  The
first was a maniville (hand cranked).  His design was conservative: three
tunes with tooth tips 0.100" apart.  Larger than average cylinder pins.

As for the mart: most everyone stayed for the public mart, the exception
being Frank Metzger.  His items tend to be very small, very fragile, and
very expensive.

Don't I count as a known subscriber?
