Enigma Machine

[@BaldyMakesStuff]

That's proper advanced level engineering. Well done.

[@ChrisShute62]

Congratulations Craig! Few people have the skills and understanding to achieve all this, so close to the original.

With accurate double stepping!

Thanks for noticing 🙂

Ooh, now I want to build a Meccano Colossus and display opposite Craig next year.

[@ZXGuesser]

I did think of asking him if he was doing a Bombe for next year's show, but thought better of it 😄

@@ZXGuesser A Bombe might be possible, (it's basically 32 Enigmas all going at once) but it would be difficult to make 3,200 valves out of Meccano 😁😁

[@michaelberg9656]

One of the best, if not the best, Meccano models I've ever seen. What's that one green piece doing in there ruining the colour scheme?😁😁😁

[@craiglonghurst]

I originally built the frame in mid green but rebuilt in zinc. Don’t worry - I’ve replaced the remaining green parts with zinc since SkegEx 😊

[@1944GPW]

Mind boggling Meccano skillz. What next, a Lorenz 'Fish' cipher machine? And then the Colossus to break it? :) Well done Craig!

[@GeorgEiermann]

well build and well explained!👍👍

[@sheep21]

Amazing

[@asbestomolesto]

I hope building projects will come out soon!
