Time machine for sale - TradeMe.co.nz - New Zealand Page 1 of 39 Home > Electronics & photography > Other electronics Time machine Reserve met | Closed: 6:40 pm, Sat 1 Oct 2005 Unfinished project. Started making a machine to facillitate time travel, unfortunately I just dont have the time to complete it. Have had mixed results, so no guarantees. Would suit DIY handyman with quantum physics background or similar intersest. No time wasters please ! Would consider swap for anti-gravity machine Please read the questions and answers for this auction below. Closes 6:40 pm, Sat 1 Oct 2005. This auction used auto-extend.

Questions and answers Do you have the flux capacitor to go with this? I can't see it in the photo.. posted by: studio1 (417 ) 5:06 pm, Tue 27 Sep This model does not use a flux capacitor to reduce the time dilation effect. Are you sure you know what you are doing ? Does this run on mains? What's the reserve? What will postage be to Palmerston North? posted by: izzy_dude (90 ) 8:24 pm, Tue 27 Sep The machine can be self powered if you can find a source of Uranium 235. Alternatively it can run of mains power supply. Postage anywhere in NZ, anytime $5 haha. great stuff. +bids+ posted by: westyandseven (124 ) 4:20 am, Wed 28 Sep http://www.trademe.co.nz/Electronics-photography/Other/auction-36725938.htm 8/11/2007 Time machine for sale - TradeMe.co.nz - New Zealand Page 2 of 39 haha. If its so great why arent you bidding ? I've got a space continuum transfunctioner. Would you consider swaping it for that? It's a bit rough and ready and blows a little bule smoke but appears to be running ok. posted by: allmypukunui (25 ) 10:23 am, Wed 28 Sep space continuum transfunctioners are old school. I used to have one and it blew blue smoke too, just before it blew up. Get rid of it now. I'd like to go back & see my Great Uncle Rodney when he was 18 because he skulled a jug of beer in only 3.2 seconds & I'd certainly like to see that! I'm pretty sure that I have the necessary skills to complete the project too. I got a C+ in 4th form Science & two sticky red stars. posted by: mrshin (372 ) 1:34 pm, Wed 28 Sep Certainly an event worthy of time travel. And if any one can get this puppy working, its you - with your fancy two red stars, and forth form education. Will this machine be capable of going forwards as well as backwards it time. I built one in 2052 that only went backwards and I haven't been able to get back to my time. I need one that can go boths ways so I can come back to this time to feed the cat I have. posted by: jd10 (234 ) 2:07 pm, Wed 28 Sep interesting dilema, but simply answered by the formula : dt = dt' . (1 - v²/c²)1/2 which i have designed the device around, in theory past and future travel should be possible. I have sympathy for you and your cat, but when amateurs play with time travel this is what happens. i looove it... its a master piece in progress ;p posted by: moooona (254 ) 6:47 pm, Wed 28 Sep this is not a piece of conceptual art. it is a very serious quantum level time travelling device - well would be if it worked. Does it have fast forward, rewind and pause? posted by: izzy_dude (90 ) 9:21 am, Thu 29 Sep Time is a little more complicated than fast forwarding, rewinding and pause. The time reference dilator is capable of such functions but the theory behind it is somewhat unproven. It does have an eject button if thats any help ? Here's a curly question... If I traveled back in time to when I was ten years old, do you think it would be illegal for me to fondle my younger self? posted by: absolut (22 ) 2:13 pm, Thu 29 Sep in a court of law i believe what you are describing would be classed as Self pleasure, or perhaps self abuse Either way both are perfectly legal no matter what the age. If you were caught they would have issues proving it via DNA anyway Back in '82, I used to be able to throw a pigskin a quarter mile. Would this machine be able to take me back in time so I could take State? posted by: nzjafa (2 ) 3:10 pm, Thu 29 Sep you need to give up on your glory years, and live for the now. A quarter mile is pretty impressive though, is that for real ? Does the eftpos machine work on Pre-pay time credits or pay as you travel? posted by: steve__ (28 ) 3:31 pm, Thu 29 Sep i see you have mistaken the time defliberator for an old eftpos machine. Easy mistake for beginners to time travel to make, they do look similar. If I am successful with my bid, do you think there is sufficient grunt in the machine to go back to the beginning of this auction, wipe out all memory of it, so I don't have to pay you. posted by: bubbs29 (83 ) 4:04 pm, Thu 29 Sep http://www.trademe.co.nz/Electronics-photography/Other/auction-36725938.htm 8/11/2007 Time machine for sale - TradeMe.co.nz - New Zealand Page 3 of 39 if the auction dosnt take place, you would never have the time machine, so you would be stuck in the past, with no machine to get back to the present. time is a dangerous thing to play with, and you really need to carefully consider the consequences, before you start mucking with the past, and breaching time continuation Ha! Call me an amateur. I just fixed my time machine. All I had to do was put the AA batteries in the other way round and now it goes forwards in time! See you suckers later, Im going back to the future. Oh and as a heads up to the winner of this auction everything in the future is chrome posted by: jd10 (234 ) 4:29 pm, Thu 29 Sep Please note AA batteries were only invented in 1968 so dont go back beyond this time. Also they will be phased in 2010 due to the invention of the organic fuel cell, brought on by the severe depletion of the worlds battery resources. So dont go forward in time past this date. Yes I do know what I am doing.. without the flux capacitor I can't modulate the 21 gigawatts of energy I need to transmogrify the time / space continuum. So far all attempts to locate a flux capacitor have proved fruitless, hence why I haven't been able to time travel. They've got them in the future, but I can't get there to get one. posted by: studio1 (417 ) 4:39 pm, Thu 29 Sep I dont know a great deal about flux capacitors as my machine does not use one. You could try getting in contact with Marty McFly, his delorean time machine is based on Flux capaitation and he maybe able to supply you with one. May pay to get a couple cos they dont last to long apparently. I think I saw one for sale on trademe a while back.. I have half of my cheese and tomato sandwich left from lunch, would you consider a trade? posted by: adamstar (59 ) 4:44 pm, Thu 29 Sep What kind of dressing ? do you think i could get your theory on paper so i can build my own time machine, all i need is a prtable phone, efptos machine, shit coomputer tower, headset, spard floppy disc and some random wires,.....that way i can go back and have sex with any one i want no mater what they say and it would be legal because by the time i am back in this time i wouldnt of aged a bit so they will be looking for someone 15 years older....... this machine sounds great...maybe i could be a hero and stop the 7/1 posted by: sldwys1 (50 ) 4:48 pm, Thu 29 Sep unfortunately its all in my head, and a bit hard to explain to people not hip with the theories behing time travel. you seems to have the parts down, but you also need a positive, can do attitude, and a certain amount of qunatum physics knowledge. And an awful lot of patience. it amazes me how many people wish to use time travel for sexual gratification, it is not what it was designed for. I am particularly saddened to have been outbid. However $9.52 was the limit of my budget (being as it is 76% of my annual income). By the way, what are these things that go whoosh when they pass my buggy on the road? posted by: rogerp (517 ) 4:48 pm, Thu 29 Sep Those things going woosh would be cars going the speed limit. You should consider a new job, a monkey gets paid more in a zoo.
