@Aceldamor

Thanks! I really appreciate the feedback!

I'm definitely going to make the monitor rotate. Exactly how, I'm still not sure. Originally, I was thinking lots of interconnected gears, but I'm not sure how I'd hook em all up, and I wasn't even sure where I'd find something suitable. However, I think that motorcycle transmission gears might work quite nicely, If I could figure some reasonable way to mount them to some sort of bearings.

Any ideas there would be much appreciated!

Then, I figured I might be able to use a brass wire and pulley system. You can get brass wire and largish ornate brass pulleys for old grandfather clocks somewhat readily, and for not a lot of money, so that might be another option.

About the playing, yeah, I've already wondered about "When it's done, what then?" I think I bit off a whole lot more project that I thought I was getting into, but I've really had fun doing it.

And there's still a lot of ideas floating around in the back of my head (and on this thread!)  :)

On the other hand, this is the type of project that never really has to be "done," isn't it? ;)

Hehe. Yeah, but my wife would kill you if she read that.
Or rather, she'd kill me.  ;)

@ Mrs. drventure:  Um...j/k!  :angel:

Benevolance:
With any luck, you could convince her not to kill you until after you were finished...
