To pull this together, I'll need to find
or build three basic components. First is a drive gear mechanism
with a speed governor to spin the record. Next is the reproducer,
a stylus and diaphragm which converts the vibrations
from the record into sound waves. Then, we'll need a horn
to amplify the sound. Now, the challenge is
I have to make it tiny enough so that it fits in the palm of my hand.
Remember, this thing had to be portable

To pull this together, I'll need to find
or build three basic components.
00:00:06.505 --> 00:00:10.076
First is a drive gear mechanism
with a speed governor to spin the record.
00:00:12.999 --> 00:00:15.264
Next is the reproducer,
a stylus and diaphragm
00:00:15.347 --> 00:00:19.393
which converts the vibrations
from the record into sound waves.
00:00:20.561 --> 00:00:23.355
Then, we'll need a horn
to amplify the sound.
00:00:25.858 --> 00:00:28.652
Now, the challenge is
I have to make it tiny enough
00:00:28.736 --> 00:00:32.364
so that it fits in the palm of my hand.
Remember, this thing had to be portable.
