Re crystals, worth remembering that electronics is based on the resonance of crystals. We can't see them anymore, but there is a good youtube video from WW2 that shows radio crystals being manufactured and they are about 2 inches square. The resonant frequency of each crystal depends on its size and shape - the larger ones resonate at human frequencies. Not all crystals are piezoelectric, but the quartz family crystals are.
