i've mentioned here [last fall i believe] as well that i was doing that...
another project came up so i never got as far as pasting all the strips of
tape down, but with the few bits i did i had some fun warpy sounds :)

i've got nothing to do tonite so i think i'll take the time to work on this
some more, and it will give me something to do until i get the chassis for a
noisebox/synth i'm working on.

R.D., if you find the heads and don't want all of them... give me a shout :P
