can a record player needle fall out?
I moved my turntable this weekend and noticed after that the needle is completely missing!

The chassis received a complete electronic restoration to include all condencers, and electrolytics, as well as a few resistors. Six out of the eight tubes required replacement. The phonograph’s old crystal Astatic 40-T cartridge proved completely dead [...]

Playing a record with a sewing needle and paper cone
This was this kid’s Physics of Sound project. It surprised me a little to see it work so well since the needle is not likely the same size as a phonograph needle.
