Let's see...to operate it you'd need two pickup trucks with winches, periodic sources of lubrication, and a bicycle to get you back and forth to the hairline.

Can you imagine trusting slide rules with your life today?

I dig your decor, Gryph.

Glad you like the wall. I have plenty more mother Boards if you want to do the same.
