title: String Ray
aka: Standing wave device / quantum wave in a box

Description:
The string ray has two motors to drive the string, and their speed can be adjusted to produce different standing wave patterns.

Questions:
    Would this work on the moon? (ie. with lower gravity?)
    What is the result of a higher tension in the string?
