When shopping for a music box there’s usually a decent selection of lawsuit-free public domain songs to choose from. But a new online service called Music Drop finally lets anyone compose their own 16-note tune, which is 3D printed alongside these adorable custom hand-cranked music boxes.

Composing your masterpiece is as simple as adding dots to this grid which plays it in an endless loop while you perfect your creation. When you’re done you can save your tune (and choose to share it with the world in an online gallery), choose a color for your music box, and Left Field Labs will send it to their 3D printers. From what we can tell they’ll even ship your music box to you at no charge, but presumably that free offer won’t last for long. [Music Drop via Notcot]
