Puts me in mind of my old MK 114 Mod 7 analog ASW fire control system made up of several boxes full of syncros and servos or, as we called them 'wobbly wheels and wiggly pins'.
We must be about the same age, Scott. I had one of those too, and of course the first thing I built was the most complicated thing in the little instruction book! But, it worked.....
I loved my Erector set and my Legos. Then I got to love Legos again along with K'Net with my boys. Both of my grandfathers love building stuff out of wood with me. I look forward to some day being able to build with grand kids.
