William is making a graphophone... no plans or instructions, just careful study of old photos, and a lot of reading. He's learning his wood working skills as he goes. He doesn't plan for it to play old cylinders, but to actually function with an iPod! He has also been making a flintlock pistol... something a pirate might have carried. Again, it's all from research and he's been figuring stuff out as he goes. I admire his determination... even through frustration and setbacks. He's learning so much! Judy, thank you for wanting to know, for commenting.

The concentration, the knowing hands... makes me want to know what he was building.
