Steampunk Record Player with Arduino

Davide Gomba — August 5th, 2011

A steam-powered record turntable made out of juck & re-used things.

This was made with small steam engine with a boiler crafted from a copper water pipe and carved some wood for the custom platter and base. Add some magnets, a coil for a pickup and a servo that is controlled by Arduino.
