FAKE PHONE RINGS

At Busselton Repertory Club, we would like to make a modern phone "ring" ("brr-brr") on stage. We have a device that we crank to ring the bells on the old-fashioned phones.

Does anyone know how to do it? If it has to be built from a diagram or a spec, we can get access to technical people that should be able to help us. I will be in Perth in late August/early September if a personal visit will help.

The cadence of the ring is created in the telephone exchange by the equipment, or if you are connected to a PABX from that. So you will need to switch the current on and off to make it ring the way you want.
