Why nothing constructive gets done around here.

My sis signed me up as a featured artist for June at the Sturgis library and I was a little short on pieces to take so I spent 3-4 days making this. The alien zombie lunar attack trike.

It was brought to my attention that I should have a Iilludium Q-36 explosive space modulator. Since they are no longer being made and hard to find, I'm trying to modify it for a zero atmosphere turbo mentabulator but getting the bypass secondary pressure conduit the right length is touchy. Very dangerous stuff.

The frequency of the modulator is key... If it has too many deculators then the ATF, The CIA, the FBI and the ICE will be a' knockin at your door... Big time. In the mean time I will be working in the long overdue sunshine in front of my shop with a bottle of Rose' which is the only proper liquid I could find on the property this afternoon. My wife called from town and is bringing home a six pack of IPA. Got a lot done on the woodie this weekend, details at eleven.....

You really needed an Orthomode Transducer set to X-Band frequencies. The turbo mentabulator is nice, but unstable.

I'm running it through a 14,600 rotating prism first, supposed to stabilize the frequency.

And here I thought that was only useful for the Pseudo-Random Spread Spectrum Mono Encapsulator. Huh, learn something new every day...

Let me guess, you all were on the development team for the Turbo Encapulator...

Turbo mentabulator, completely different thing. But I'm not above plagiarism.

Ah, thank you. I had assumed you further developed the concept for gravities ranging from zero to infinitely negative, you know to compensate for split-grain non-linear derivatives during super-terranean operation.

Never divide by zero! We wouldn't want a tear in the space-time continuum now would we?

Initial settings are only for Schumann resonance. Compensation for ELF spikes on other planets is modulated through a portal relief in the secondary bypass conduit, which we are still working the bugs out of.

If you might be installing a doplar over-compensation valve, I have a 31/64 Franz wrench I will loan you.
