Wind Box

When I was in my childhood, I was curious about the origin of the wind. In my childish mind, a giant tree might be the place where the wind came from. That is the concept of Wind Box. On the top of the box, there is an illustration shows the giant triangular tree with a small hole on it. Inside the box, a series of connected wooden fans and gears are chained together. If you rotate the handle on the right side of the box,  all the fans rotate. There is also a small musical equipment in the box that plays the song. The fans represents the wind generator that makes the wind coming out from the tree through the hole. That is my basic idea.
