True, but consider the craftmanship that went into that little engine! Think of the precision of the meaurements, how the minute pieces all interact. From an engineering view point, that this is a thing of great beauty.

This +Twelvety!

What type of engineering?
I was a mechanical engineer in the army, known as an Armourer specialising in weapon systems, everything from bayonets through to machine gins to artillery systems. An ace job! :D
