Step 2THE TYPEWRITER PARTS
All of the typewriter parts have different shapes, lengths, and weights. Because of that, they vibrate at different frequencies and produce different notes.
Other factors such as diameter being the same, a short rod will vibrate faster and create a note of higher pitch than a long rod will. The same holds true of strings on string instruments.
The parts started out basically flat. I bent them in different ways to make them more visually interesting and welded them with an oxyacetylene torch to the hollow steel ball I found. It reminds me of a round head with a crazy hairdo.
