The ring pattern encoding is clever. Hello from Boston. Also thought you would be amused: my favorite unit of velocity is attoparsec per microfortnight. Works out very close to inches/second.
Cool project. You shouldn't have to strip cloth covered wire. The covering should just slide back from the conductor's end easily after cutting to length.
What an utterly redundant exercise in the 21st century¹, I absolutely love it. Happy new year and here's to many more _redundant_ exercises in 2025. ¹ Well, that is what Gen-whatever-the-hell-we-are-up-to would say, but ask yourself this, youngsters: how much modern technology will be functional in a century or so, even with new batteries?
I want you to know I have the Morrison phone that was at grandma and granddads house. Bop made it into a radio that doesn’t work very well but I’d love to send it to you if you’d like it. Let me know. Love you. Aunt Carol
This is the first time I've ever heard the word "palimpsest" (9:59) used for something other than manuscripts...and you know what, it's perfect!
It's a great word!
lovely stuff! I'd also love to see a cheapest possible version using modern hardware

The last time I was in Boston, I made sure to go see the smoot marks on the Harvard Bridge!
Oh, cool, I didn't know you had a full on pull down staircase in the shop! This is such a great project.
What a lovely project, and the tease of what's coming _chefs kiss!_
Hell yeah brother. Love the reuse of old tech.
Excellent work. Have a good year!
What a great video to *ring* in the new year :)
I love the ring codes. Can't wait for next year's projects! Cheers and happy New Years!
Excellent project. I have aways wanted to make something similar for my shop, but using a replica of "the red phone"
I love everything you're doing
Happy new year mate👍👌🇦🇺
Love your videos. I share them with my students. Keep it you steely eyed stargazer.

Fantastic! A wonderful way to close out 2024 - thank you and happy Hogmanay. All the very best for 2025!
I'm sure Mr Bell will be quite forgiving of your stylish acquisition of his technology. Onward to 2025!
I love my new phone!
Cool
Now make a carbon amplifier/repeater for it.

I had been wondering where that ended up!
I have it in LBB. I’ll ship it to you in February
