Picked up this really cool looking needle for the dial on my vintage Zenith radio. The needle came from a model made in the 50's, whereas this is a radio from the 40's. It looks way better than the needle this radio originally had. The needle is mounted on the shaft of a small stepper motor, controlled by an Arduino.
I admit, the tuner sounds are fake, I added them while editing the video.
