New Jukebox - Wurlitzer style - Spring construction has begun!

Thanks to Mountains' suggestion, I decided to tackle the bubbler system today. I bought a dual air pump for a fish tank today at PetSmart and some 3/4" od 1/2" id tubing from Home Depot. With just the right amount of light air release, perfectly timed bubbles rise up through the tubes. Tomorrow I'm going to see if the local Tractor Supply Company is open and get a 1/2" t valve with a pressure release. Pics to come in the near future for those of you who have no clue what I'm talking about. ;)
EDIT:
Here are some youtube videos of what I'm talking about. It's the tubes with air bubbles on the edges.

Man thats going to be a lot of finishing work. I wish I had a huge shop and a bunch of minions I could enslave to help me with my projects:-( But watching that build you did was very informative, and I can definitely see your going to do a great job:-)
I say sell it on craigslist for $1000 with the disclaimer: Must have some technological experience to set up and use. This jukebox does not use cds and will play mp3s. For amusement only.
On top of that the text saying that your gameroom needs one of these, be the envy of all your friends. Hehehe. Just a thought.

Okay, I need some input. Small bubbles or large?
