The method of making a homemade music box is as follows:

1. First, use a hacksaw to cut a section of wood to make a cube. Use an electric grinder to dig out a round hole about 100 mm in diameter in the middle of the wood block. Then slowly sand it smooth with sandpaper. Smooth the bottom of the block with sandpaper.

2. Cut a small log to make a positioning pin. The bottom disc is glued to the cube wood. Finally, use tools to make the preliminary shape and polish it. When all processes are completed, the handmade music box is completed.

Music Box (Musical box) is a mechanical sounding musical instrument. It was invented by Swiss watchmaker Antoine Fabre in 1796. It can automatically play music by turning the chain link in the box. This antique is housed in the Arashiyama Music Box Museum in Kyoto, Japan.

Development

The melodious music of the music box often evokes people's memories of the good past, and even makes people dream about it, falling into the recollection of time. Perhaps the greatest charm of the mechanical music box that has swept the global market for more than 300 years lies in its ability to solidify abstract music into concrete works of art. Become the best choice for people to express their beautiful emotions and remember the past!

The history of the development of mechanical music boxes can be traced back to the invention of the bells hung on church bell towers in the early 14th century. This musical instrument is played with a clockwork device and can emit a crystal-clear sound. The music was once popular in the Netherlands, Belgium and northern France. Since 1811, Switzerland has been the center of this craft. Like the Swiss watch industry, the two complement each other and have been the leader for a period of time, dominating the world.
