I built a pressure sensor by wrapping a long strip of Velostat around one of the ringer rods and measuring the resistance from one end to another. When I compressed or relaxed the coil, I saw some change on my ohmmeter, but it wasn't a lot. I made a second coil, which had a lower overall resistance, but it was less sensitive. I will have to look up how other people make similar pressure sensors.
