Hippie hair hammer heads

The kids are alright

This adds so much fun to the Glockenbox!  The strikers are made from piano damper levers and flanges.  I removed the damper felt and rotate the heads to use the set screws to strike the glockenspiel bars, then I thought they really needed googley eyes.  Then they looked a little bald.  I added colored plush material for hair, and the glockendudes were born!

I created 32 individual unique striker heads, some of them have names.  This one kind-of looks like Jean Luc Picard to me.
