Does anyone know a way to loop the tape on a hand crank music box? I have a 30-note box and attempted to tape the 2 ends of the music tape together with clear vinyl tape (I wanted something sturdy since the music tape is so stiff), but I think the added thickness just broke the gears when the looped/taped part fed through the mechanism. Is looping simply impossible with plastic gears? Does it work with another kind of mechanism? Is there a kind of tape that will work better?

I'm very new to music boxes... I'm wondering if there are standard terms for the dashed and solid timing lines that I see on a lot of 30-note music box paper? Or the distances between them? Many thanks, Erik
I am having trouble this week, since Monday to upload any midi file, the same message appears, 'Meta Message´ object has no attribute ' text' , why is that? Thanks.
If you see the above video My music box of 30 notes skips sometimes I don't understand why and how to fix it. It happens on most of my notations
My second problem is gear noise. These gears are made of brass. It there a way to lessen the noise of the gear rotating? I have tried oil but not much difference.
I have an old music box lullaby I dont know the name of which I want to know, but there is a small problem; 2 of the metal teeth have broken off, which causes online tools like shazam or aha music not to recognize it. I have also searched a few lists of lullaby songs to see if I could recognize it from there, but I didnt succeed. Is there anyone who either knows where I can go to with this specific problem, or knows a lot of lullabies who might be able to recognize the song theirselves?
Greetings, I've been searching for a couple of days now to no avail. There is this tune by the alias "1805 swiss snuff music box: traditional music box", which has no actual name accredited to it. Can you identify what the original composition/song is? Lunk: [suspicious link]
