Description
Six years and a half ago (!) I have built this music box with two couples of dancers :

using the mechanism of these cute ice skaters :

I didn't notice that I have made a closed box which cannot be built !
So I have rebuilt a new music box, with a drawer which can be slide to make the mechanism, after removed some screws.
To make the dancers dance :
Menu : : View :: Toolbars and Docking Windows :: Motion, then adjust General and MOTEUR cursors.
To open the drawer, use the rightmost combo box in the menu bar, select the unit TIROIR and use the + and – numkeys.
The music drum cannot be made with Meccano parts. I have made a false one...
Enjoy !
