Silent Auction Description | Presenting an Archimedes screw driven dice machine built from mahogany clad plywood and finished with a beeswax-based polish. It includes vehicles that can drive the desert road: a bus, wide cargo bus, and a helipad. 13 cherrywood tokens fit in the wide bus and are marked on one side with the DB logo and on the other with an image from the machine. You'll find all the desert bus shift banners, the Qwerpline radio tower, and my own dice alchemy symbol. Operation: Place dice in the hopper and turn the crank clockwise. Dice will roll up the stairs and pour out of the top. Place a vehicle in the slot at the base of the road (adjusting screw position if necessary). As the crank turns, the screw will push vehicle(s) to the end of the road and remain there until removed (or pushed off by a pursuing vehicle). In the event of a jam, you can rock the handle or jostle the dice on the back wall with a finger down the hopper. Maintenance: Every few years work in a bit more beeswax polish or butcher block oil to keep the wood conditioned. Should the mahogany veneer chip, use a bit of stain to match the colour. If the axles get stiff, a bicycle chain dry wax can be worked in. |
