Acoustic Phonograph Horn Carving
Carving exponential-expansion wooden horns for vintage acoustic phonographs. Combines green woodworking's grain-reading with audio physics — horn geometry determines frequency response through mathematical expansion ratios. No electronics; pure mechanical sound amplification from a vibrating needle through sculpted air.
