Tonight in Seattle:  

A record player made out of... paper?

Paper Record Player

You've found yourself accidentally locked in a Kinko's overnight? Here's the prototype for the fully working, manual record player made entirely of paper that you could make. 

To play the record the handle needs to be turned in a clockwise direction at a steady 33 1/3rpm. The paper cone then acts as a pickup, amplifying the sound enough to make it audible. (Record shown, 'The Sound of Music' 1965).

This is incredible. I'm so glad people are finding ways to make things out of renewable resources!
