We use to glue corks onto pieces of wood screwed to larger pieces of wood, then put pins into the corks.  We would put the tape machine on its back and place the cork/pin apparati around the room, stretch the tape to our "idlers" to make really long loops. My wife thought we were nuts.

I love the idler affixed to the table for tape loops, Brilliant.


If you are into the old scholl stuff there is a very very inexpensive , very fine software package that uses an matrix interface to bring together emulations of classic stuff.
