Anyone have any details on how to make a mic or anything like that?

You know, at first I thought that something like this would be a waste of time and money, but then I googled it, and it seems like it would be an awesome project if I had the time and money. For shit's sake, here's the link I found. Honestly, it's a super basic site, but that's a nifty idea! I'm gonna look further into this for sure.

If you have any old speakers lying around from a hifi or something, you can use those as primitive speakers. The diaphragms are very large compared to normal microphones, so they are only really good at picking up low frequencies, but this makes them great for capturing the low end of a kick drum.
