Seek Musical Box Automaton Kit
By Lisette Wansink

-- non-subscriber, please reply to sender and MMD --

I'm searching for a musical box kit.  As an artist I have made many
musical boxes over the years.  By making a figure of papier-mâché and
putting in a Sankyo music box it becomes a moving and musical object.

Now I would like to have more movements (not just turning around).
What I am looking for are attributes that not only let a figure make
one movement when playing the music (like turning around), but two
or three movements.  This a technical question with maybe a simple
answer but am not very technical; maybe someone can help me.

I also wonder whether it is possible to put your own music in a box 
or a microchip, and how do I connect the movement of the figure.
