"Atari Punk Console AKA Forrest Mims' Stepped Tone Generator.
What a fantastic stocking stuffer!
I built this atari punk console into a metal American Spirit cigarette pack. I tweaked the circuit for extra tasty bass. It fits nicely in the palm of your hand, with your thumb on the trigger. The lower knob is pitch, the upper controls the "steps" or "range". I added a 1/4 inch line out. I put a little speaker in the bottom so you can play it "on the go" (though it is small and fairly thin sounding). The LED at the end of his pipe is ultra bright. This video shows me playing it through a boomerang delay/looping pedal. Runs on 1 9 volt battery"

Very nice implementation of the stepped tone generator. It's much better than the original, which I built on a solderless breadboard.
