I can understand the concept; it's not something to decorate your living room like a piece of furniture.  It's an early example of a purely utilitarian design, much unlike many of the things we have nowadays.  Its functionality constitutes  a style and form of its own.

Thank you mate!, & to all other contributors.
Regarding your comment about the 'virus'... with my last few deliveries, I raise the roller-door, and
the delivery guy just throws it inside, & doesn't even want a signature!!  hahaha...!!
Yep. It will be a work of love!!....  It's the 'unknown' insides that I'm excited about!   ;D
To 'vk6zgo'...
Obviously your no 'Spring-Chicken' either, with you interests, work, play history with 'Contacts' !!  8)
Years ago, I lived in Adelaide, and had a great relationship with an old Guy near Port Adelaide.  I must
have collected thousands of dollars of equip/parts over the years, which I still pine over many decades
later, as it is ALL gone now! (Divorce/house/property etc.. sigh). I had COUNTLESS pieces of old valve
based test equipment , and HUNDREDS of not just common, but very RARE tubes, military & otherwise.
Damn.  I hate 'remembering' what I once had...  All gone!!! :-X

Ha!!... It's interesting what you (Einstein) said there, about destroying matter... (Well you can, sort of!).
What was actually said, is that "ENERGY can not be created or destroyed, but can ONLY be transferred from
one object to another, or transformed from one form to another".  Obviously, in a nuclear explosion, that
original small amount of 'Matter' is being converted to 'Energy' as we know it, in the form of heat, light, and
various others on the spectrum, as per the famous 'E=MC2'.  Also, 'Matter' (at atomic particle level) has been
re-created in high energy accelerators, which leaves me with the only logical conclusion...

MATTER is but a 'Form' of ENERGY, and visa versa...  ;D
