I've always fancied one of those mechanical door bells you used to see in
UpstairsDownstairs with brass plungers and bits of string and pulleys and
stuff. I wonder if anyone makes them?

How would you connect a door bell transformer to the mains?



I would use one or more slender, stringlike pieces or filaments of
relatively rigid or flexible metal, circular in section, woven or twisted
together and insulated with a dielectric material.
