What a perfect, passion-fueled project. Thumb tacks, cardboard, & alligator clips. Looks like the flight computer from Lost in Space, and there is nothing wrong with that.

His latest video below has a servo-driven dial output for a "display"; be sure to see his earlier video embedded in the link above.

    LOL...I confess to being a fan of Mystery Science Theatre 3000 (MST3000) because of the cheesy old movies. Space ships with steam valves and regular office desks/chairs. Much better than modern movies. :)

    I love it, particularly the retro dial display.
