A tangible rhythm sequencer. Ball bearings are used to trigger (Roland TR-808) drum sounds. Visual feedback is provided from a CRT display underneath to indicate the current time and the state of each beat.

    Bad news is that you can't buy one, good news is that you can make your own! - the article is in vol.17 of MakeZine (makezine.com/17/beatbearing/)

    how much time do you use in the making of this? and how much would you think a novice will take to make one of those?

    It would take quite a while to make, but it all depends on what tools/facilities you have access to. Maybe a month or two months working on weekends would do it?

    It's a useless toy. Just do it in software, either to control soft-synths or to send midi to outboard gear. It's quicker and easier.

    But that's assuming you actually want to get any work done and make some money instead of just playing around like a little kid.
