Hi
I built several crystal sets. One I built using a razor
blade and a piece of graphite from a pencil. It doesn't
work with stainless blades. You need one of the older
style "Blue Blades".
Most rock shops have some galena. With some lead and
sulfur, you can make your own galena.

A razor blade and pencil lead!?! Wow.. that is very cool! I am old
enough (errrgh... I never thought I would say that!) to know about using
germanium diodes (ala Crystal Radio Kits from that once wonderful store Radio
Shack), but a razor blade and pencil lead... How do you put it together?
