Default RE: Electronic Caller?

I have been doing some thinking on this. Matt13 has a great idea with a dictaphone with different files within a folder. This is the one I am looking at http://www.futureshop.ca/en-CA/produ...3f0303c5d6en02 . I thought some kind of a plywood base with a hinged and sprung pedal on it that would have a piece of coiled music wire attached to it. The device would sit in a wood cradle beside the pedal (maybe velcroed??) and the music wire would hit the play switch every time the pedal was depressed. The device would stop after each "depression". Repeat sequence for the next figure. I am going to actively work on a prototype and will report back when I have either succeeded or failed!! I'll try to look up Rube Goldberg and Mickey Mouse for some advice on this!!

Hoping for success,

MJ
