THIS is the blackhole of awesome you fell out of, Borepatch. If I'd known how amazing math and astronomy were, I'd have paid more attention in school....wait. I took home ec. I suck.
BP, Given the ww2 sniper reference and all, my first inclination was to think . . . someonebuild a German Enigma device out of lego. I must say this is FAR more impressive. Thanks . . . and I know plenty of geeks with whom to share this gem.
It isn't so much that they reproduced it in Legos (although I li that part just the same) but that someone recognized it as interesting, and that it was reverse-engineered from the CTs. In any case I'm impressed, a lot.
Amazing, and not the Lego bit - the mechanism is jaw-dropping.
