Dancing Ballerinas for my granddaughter

Your Granddaughter will love it, very nice job.

Very cool

You’re gonna see Magic in her eyes when she gets it.

Great design and build! Your granddaughter is lucky and I’m sure you’ll get the greatest reward when her eyes light up. Merry Christmas.

Now, that is cool… Nothing like a little child to tame the beast in us men.

Thanks, guys. A few notes …

I get a kick out of my squeaky clean photos. The truth is that I totally trashed my shop while I was making it.

I’m becoming addicted to coming up with the most complex way possible to turn the handle on simple hand-cranked musical movements. I get them from Kikkerland, and If I Only Had A Brain is next on the list.

Can anyone guess how Dancing Ballerinas works … in 25 words or less?

Way to go grandpa! I’m sure she will be doing back flips when she sees it ;-)

Very nice John

-- A childs smile is payment enough.

John your granddaughter will treasure this and pass it to her daughter. A heirloom in the making! ... do you have any video of the ballerinas in action?

-- Love thy neighbour as thyself

Lots of nice gift grandchildren, you’re a good man … A lot of nice work,

So cool John, one lucky granddaughter.

There’s no reward in doing anything simply. :) I do stuff the hard way every day. As my mother used to say, “your head will never save your heels.”
Great project John.
