Ambleshift's Anfractuous
Album
How dare Scridite try and
take credit! He knows very
well that he would never
have solved the problem of
how to synchromesh the
differential divergences
within the amalgamating
cavity. While I am totally
ready to admit
| that his reader is an
important part of the
amalgamator, he would have
died of being poked in the
eye by his devices, he just
makes it too complicated.
I mean the amalgamator only
needs my display device,
and gearbox, along with
Scrindite's gearbox and
mechanoinstruction reader.

It will also need a frame,
cover and gearbox invented
by Poxysmit along with a
power belt that Epicthieck
designed. Use a few screws
to hold it together and a
large mana battery to
charge it. The hard part is
meshing it all together.
Scrindite also complained
that the display device did
| not give enough
information, but I think
that he just likes
complexity for complexity's
sake. The display device
is simple, really. It is
just a few parts. Make one
of my display plates made
from a high quality steel
plate with some powdered
glowing rock in a forge.
Lubricate it with vegetable
|
|
oil while you use your file
to shape it properly.
Attach a glowgem to a
pinion gear and one of the
size AAA clockwork shafts,
and put it inside one of
Poxysmit's gearbox casings.
Take a red, blue, green and
white indicator and put
them in their appropriate
spots on the display panel.
Be sure to align the
| glowgem so that the vertex
angles of the facets align
with the indicator socket
pass-through slots. Attach
the display panel to the
top of the gearbox with a
few mechanical gnome bolts.
I admit that the gearbox is
a bit complex, but anyone
who has passed their
rudimentary exam in the
|
|
mechanics of motion and
multiplication should be
able to figure it out with
no difficulty. Mount a
normal gear, and a
mechanical gnome gear on a
normal metal shaft, and
then mount another gear and
a clockwork gear from one
of our smaller clockworks on
a size A clockwork shaft.
Mount both of these inside
| one of Poxysmit's Gearbox
casings and tension a
mechanical clockwork gnome
spring to 2.35 frips.
Cover the box with one of
Poxysmit's gearbox tops and
secure it with some screws.
More research will be
needed to solve the problem
of the reliability of the
amalgamator. Though it has
|
|
never damaged one of the
stones put in it, it can
only be used once as all
the parts within it are
damaged beyond use when
it is done.
