Build a Self Playing Harmonica
By Bill Budenholzer

Okay, so I admit this is way off from the usual discussion found in this
group but I just couldn't pass it up.  A contributor to the web site
"Instructables" has posted directions to make an auto-playing harmonica
that uses a vacuum cleaner, a printer and of course a harmonica.  The
author provides enough information to give someone who is handy a chance
at building one for themselves.  It looks like a fun project, see
http://www.instructables.com/id/Episode-18-The-Self-Playing-Harmonica/

I see several opportunities for refinement.  The most important would be
to switch the air from blow to suck and off.  Next would probably be to
make it play MIDI files.
