The only think missing is a little steam engine to actually power the assembly, or at least some brass-bound electric motor. -- My liberal friends think I'm a conservative kook.

Very interesting machine.. but, he missed a few spots with the hideous gold
paint. The static appearance and the full motion visual experience would've been greatly enhanced by adding some varied colors to mimic other metals and materials.. such as some copper or bakelite-looking parts and steel parts with patina finishes. Very creative workmanship, but half-assed considerations given to appearance. -- WB .......... "anorton" wrote in message m... Absolutely amazing.
