Antique Phonograph Music Box

I found a bunch of the American Lotus pods on the beach in Grand Haven, Michigan and got an idea for the speaker on an antique phonograph like my grandmother had. I went a step further to install a music box movement in it. The box and the arm holding the needle and speaker are walnut and the base is box elder. The record is black Corian. The needle holder, the crank and the on/off lever are made of brass. I made a short You Tube video of it running:
