Music Box Design

[Chris Fairbanks]

Hi, I am working on building a Music Box with a Sankyo 72 note movement. I have been trying to find some pictures on how the L Lever and the on off switch mount. I have found various documents talking about them but no pictures. If anyone has any pictures of their music boxes with 50 or 72 note Sankyo movements I would really appreciate if they could post them. Thanks!

I made one last Christmas (I think it was the 50 note), but it was a gift so I can't get any pictures. IIRC, the L bracket goes against the back of the front of the music box. You cut a small slot through the front of the box for the switch button to go through and sliding it left/right turns the music on/off. HTH.
