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

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

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

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.

Would it be safe for pets? posted by: bigbobthefob (82 ) 5:10 pm, Thu 29 Sep

The testing I have carried out to date involved animals. I received varying results and dont want to disclose to much because the SPCA may get wind of this. Im sure if you were able to get it working correctly it would be safe for all organic life forms.

actually works ! I am a genius. Also the winning lotto numbers for this Saturday are: 6, 9, 23, 29, 32, 37 & 40. The powerball is 19. posted by: mrshin (372 ) 5:20 pm, Thu 29 Sep Cool, it seems this auction ends with a successful bid. congratulations!

Hi ; can you confirm that the phase modulation has been accurately calibrated on this. I've read on the geeksquad forums that incorrectly calibrated phase modulation while time travelling can make a guy grow boobies. posted by: arcad23 (105 ) 5:29 pm, Thu 29 Sep I have noticed this i had put it down to old age and The Noodle Box but you have me thinking....

YES I HAVE A ANTI GRAVITY MACHINE THAT I WOULD LIKE TO SWAP. COULD YOU FINISH YOUR TIME MACHINE AND BRING IT TO TAURANGA AND GO BACK IN TIME TO WHEM MY ANTI GRAVITY MACHINE KICKED INTO GEAR AND FLOATED OFF TOWARDS THE SUN, IF YOU CAN DO THIS IT WILL PREVENT IT TAKING OFF AND THEN YOU CAN SWAP IT. THANKYOU FROM JASON. posted by: jase59 (180 ) 5:29 pm, Thu 29 Sep Sorry the reserve price has already been met.

Hi Mike, This is great!! My dad was once a Great Viking Warrior in his past life.This would make a great present for him to go back in time and find out where and when he was killed in battle.WATCHING WITH INTEREST!!! as he still displays many viking attributes today. posted by: dancer17 (231 ) 5:37 pm, Thu 29 Sep unfortunately you have missed fathers day. Possibly the perfect fathers day gift. good to see your motives are for time travel are genuine and historical, not to distort time or go on some crazy rampage, for your own gain. Good for you

If I bought this, and then went back in time and stopped myself buying the time machine, would I completly disapear? Or would it cause a rip in the space/time continium and cause the earth to fold in on itself? posted by: cjh1 (477 ) 5:41 pm, Thu 29 Sep You see this is the issue. people like you who want to experiment with time and see "what would happen". What if the earth did fold in on its self...then what. Whoops ...... ! Time travel is very serious and there are HUGE repurcussions, with breaking the time continuim. With time travel comes a certain responsibility to the rest of man kind.

can i go bak to when powerball was 16mill and win lotto,that would be fantastically methologacally great posted by: kurto48 (65 ) 6:16 pm, Thu 29 Sep A machine of this sort should mot be used for personal gain...

sushi anyone ??????????? posted by: jmanshande (229 ) 7:11 pm, Thu 29 Sep

I rather like Noodle Box if your buying?

Can you please tell me how many speeds the dischargeable time synchroniser has. Also, does the machine operate at the same speed going forward as in going backwards, and if so how long would it take me to travel backwards 100 years. posted by: bubbs29 (83 ) 7:33 pm, Thu 29 Sep It is an older Synchroniser Forward is 16X Speed backwards 4X Speed

would you be willing to swap for The Tardis, which i have in my possession. Its the original that Doctor Who himself used. posted by: trade51 (27 ) 8:03 pm, Thu 29 Sep Does it come with Billie Piper?

hi does it have seating and for how many.does the phone work and what network is it on thankes posted by: alana30 (38 ) 8:15 pm, Thu 29 Sep Sorry you will have to supply your own seats as i am now using mine in my home theater.

I have 3 money growing trees planted on the moon. Would you consider a trade for 1? posted by: shano38 (19 ) 8:40 pm, Thu 29 Sep how big are these money trees, and how do you harvest the money, as i know for a fact moon travel is an impossibility. it is impossible to get to the moon to get harvest the money. despite this i will definately consider a swap.

Hey does this travel to 8.10pm Saturdays and then return to Friday nite. Mmmm this is sounding real good and hey cheap when you think of being able to win lotto each week. And ah this is just the start. Maybe I better consult the bank manager for a quicky loan. posted by: teddybearlady (351 ) 8:43 pm, Thu 29 Sep Funnilly enough I could never get it to travel to 8.10pm Saturday. What is your bank managers name and I can give him a call if you like. Lotto is small time - with the power to travel time you can think big.

howz it do u wana swap 4 my sole have a look at my listings posted by: lowedvtec (43 ) 8:51 pm, Thu 29 Sep That depends. What kind of shoe is your sole from?

Does this unit allow you to travel sideways through time, if so, how many miles to the litre? Also, could you confirm that this is a genuine time-travel device, as my last few time-machine purchases turned out to be frauds. posted by: brandoooon (19 ) 8:53 pm, Thu 29 Sep No it does not allow sideways travel through time as this unit was only designed to work 1-dimesionaly. It also does not depend on any non-renewable hydrocarbon resource for power. I can confirm this is a genuine work-in-progress and you would only be cheating yourself by not getting it working.

Hi Mike, on the previous listing, I asked a question, I believe it is still pertinent to this listing, could you please answer it, cheers Johnee. posted by: johnee (230 ) 9:09 pm, Thu 29 Sep If the device was currently working i would be able to go back in time to check your question, unfortunetly it is still in its unfinished state so you will need to repost the question.

could you give me the full formula for the physics of this machine, i will need it if i am going to continue to work on this invention, thanks posted by: godave (36 ) 9:11 pm, Thu 29 Sep Yes but it wont be what you expected!

If you dont have time why dont you just complete it and then go back in time to when you didnt have time and then you would have already finished it. Duh posted by: lin40 (4 ) 9:41 pm, Thu 29 Sep Your pretty smart! If you got this time machine i'd bet you would be smart enough to make it work... but your probably to busy trying to cure cancer or something.

Are you all completely out of your minds?? posted by: shebedevil (162 ) 10:03 pm, Thu 29 Sep Moon struck thunder over the swamp in autumn, rules and customs are disregarded. Contradictions say both yes and no and you must try to understand both sides.

My legal advice is i need some serious arse consent forms signed before I do any more "trials". i actually have a theory that helen Clark is a space traveller from both a differnt time, planet and dimension. her politics actively demotes research into time travel,

have you programmed, or allowed for, a few memory times? perhaps so when you have to leave a time in a hurry you can do so? as i have a few 'jobs' i have to do, and they will require quick exit.... posted by: chris_2million (21 ) 10:32 pm, Thu 29 Sep Sounds awfully suspicous. Quantum physists are renowned for their high ethics and morals. I would have to question your motives and interest in time travel. It is unsafe to have just anyone travelling the tides of time, there is so much potential for so much damage to be done

Hi i have something that can solve your problems cheque out my listing 4 one preloved timeing light good nik has helped in meany time related matters like getting the dloren up in runing and my phonebox please reply to DR who at the red phonebox on the corner of the world just past santas place ,thanks 4 your time ps you can buy now the timeing light 4 $one pot of gold,or a bank cheque. posted by: pepe5 (73 ) 10:36 pm, Thu 29 Sep there is nothing wrong with the timing, the issue seems to be with the particle atomization unit, its making a clunking noise. And tends to rematerilise objects anatomically incorrect. I.e it once put a guinea pigs arse on its face, and its face on its arse.

I have noticed recent eddies in the space/time continuum. Does this reflect your recent testing regime with your machine? posted by: historyman (284 ) 12:11 am, Fri 30 Sep Perhaps or maybe your losing your mind?

Oops, another question: does the main power source have adaptive capability allowing for mating to an Improbability Drive? Second sub-question: is the user manual translated by the same guy that wrote on a $2 shop toy "Plug you in and watch for educative flashing effect of lights"? posted by: historyman (284 ) 12:16 am, Fri 30 Sep One question per person please.

I would like to know where you got the patent for this time machine from.As i am part in a group of professionals dedicated to creating and marketing "spare time"...I believe a copyright infringmint may have occured here by you. I will contact my research and development department ( I believe they are on the couch in the middle of research atm ) and discuss this further with them. posted by: woosh (71 ) 8:20 am, Fri 30 Sep Let them discuss all they like with a time machine copyright infringmint is not an issue.

I want to avoid the use of nuclear power and stick with mains. Have you worked out the number of metres of cable required per year of travel. Does it vary going forward or backward? I've got the recipe for elastic copper wire. Could this help in its range. If so perhaps some of those followong this auction would like to make me an offer. posted by:

http://www.trademe.co.nz/Electronics-photography/Other/auction-36725938.htm 8/11/2007 Time machine for sale - TradeMe.co.nz - New Zealand Page 7 of 39

bazz34 (18 ) 10:08 am, Fri 30 Sep i havent figured out the length needed per year yet. I found out the hard way that a 20 metre cable isnt long enough for 5 years of time travel - the cord was yanked out at the wall, and I lost my cat inbetween times. retrieved the machine by pulling on the cord. Elastic copper wire could be useful for bungy time travelling.

ATTENTION ALL BIDDERS AND WATCHERS ALIKE! I have already won this auction. I collected the incomplete model and I used my skills to complete the project in only 42 days. I then travelled back in time just to send you this message to prove that it actually works ! I am a genius. Also the winning lotto numbers for this Saturday are: 6, 9, 23, 29, 32, 37 & 40. The powerball is 19. posted by: mrshin (146 ) 5:20 pm, Thu 29 Sep posted by: mrshin (372 ) 10:37 am, Fri 30 Sep To ensure history continuity it is vital that you win this bid, and also do not meet your self in a differnt time. So you actually need to bid!!! Great to hear you got it going, was it the flux capacitor or the time reference dilator ?

Bubbs29 had an interesting question about wiping the auction. Your answer Miked was quite incorrect. I recently bid on http://www.trademe.co.nz/structure/listings/listings_search_results.asp? searchtype=GENERAL& searchstring=36725312&searchregion=100 and succeeded, then notified Trademe who withdrew the auction - but I still have Skippy.

I bought the GE Time Travel 2000 two weeks ago. I have just come back from 1.05pm, Tuesday the 4th and “Izzy Dude” from Palmy wins the auction with a bid for $251. Quite a bargain really considering the windfall he’ll have on number 7, race 4 at Alexandra next Saturday. Up until now only he and I knew that. posted by: tumekepinga (12 ) 11:04 am, Fri 30 Sep "Izzy Dude" sounds like jellymeat i wouldnt beleave a word hes saying put your money on No9 "Big Girls Are Fun"

On the off chance....if you travel back(and forward) does this effect the ageing process??...i am a firm believer in reincarnation...and would love to go back to me prev life!

No it wont fit, unless you machine 1.45 mm off the end. i spent ages trying to fit it. A proton xyler, wow thats pretty flashy, I wish I had one then i could maybe get this puppy up and running. i cant afford the fancy gear, my misssus is always moaning about how much I spend on my silly time travel idea. nag nag nag

Hi. My names John Titor from the year 2036 and I am currently having troubles with my Dual Singularity Kerr field. I need to get back to my own future past time in a hurry and I was wondering what the mass offset distance is on this puppy? Also did it come with flash back arrestors?

What time jump are you from anyway? posted by: hexapod (12 ) 11:34 am, Fri 30 Sep Hi John im sorry to hear you are currently stuck in 2005... must kinda suck to be you.

does it run on batteries??????? posted by: tacman1 (12 ) 11:43 am, Fri 30 Sep

The machine can be self powered if you can find a source of Uranium 235. Alternatively it can run of mains power supply if you have a very long extension cord

G machine works but it has the darndest nack and will only ever function whilst hanging up side down. Would this be an amicable trade? posted by: stuffin (46 ) 12:15 pm, Fri 30 Sep In no way would this be and amicable trade, i dont want your broken junk that only works when its upside down... what do you take me for?

It appears the machine has appended to it an IDE hard drive. I would like to know what size this drive is so I can use it in my computer should I fail to satisfactorily get my Heisenberg compensator to work. The manufacturers of the Starship enterprise were successful with the compensator, but unfortunately I have been unsucessful in aquiring the engineering schematics for their design. Therefore depending on the price, and specifications of the drive, It might be a good buy either way. posted by: geoffr (41 ) 12:18 pm, Fri 30 Sep It has a 6 gig HD for storing time co-ordinates. it is actually way over speced, the starship enterprise only had only a 500MB Hard drive. True... The Hard drive also has some games on so you can play whilst travelling time

Does it have an inbuilt DeJaVue inhibitor to prevent time from looping. Needing to know desperately.

I have reviewed the model specs and am beginning to understand the science behind your machine. I am, however, struggling with the 'phone' style mechanism that replaces the more traditional flux capacitor. I understand that in conjunction with a magnetic field and the load, the 'phone' uses the hierarchical structure of the cosmos as a timer! The trilamination of the tiny spheres with selected metals and their subjection to a magnetic field and current (sustained by the load) destabilizes the posted by: james185 (37 ) 12:36 pm, Fri 30 Sep Sounds like you know what your talking about.. maybe we could hook up some time over a beer?

If we are ever able to develop a workable theory for time travel, we would open up the ability to create very complicated problems called paradoxes. A paradox is defined as something that contradicts itself. Here are two common examples: Let's say, for the sake of argument, that you could travel back to a time before you were born. The mere fact that you could exist in a time before you were born creates a paradox. If you were born in 1960, how could you exist in 1955?

I think that you'll find that a black leather gimp suit is better for time travel because of durability.

Further to my previous question...the trilamination of the tiny spheres with selected metals and their subjection to a magnetic field and current (sustained by the load) destabilizes the orderliness of the proton, the heavier atom and the 'tissue' of individual layers of metal.

How did I find out about it??? There was an article about it on tomorrows news at 6. Be warned, Paul Holmes intends to interview you soon as well and the Labour party is about to introduce a new time tax based on how long it takes you to travel thru 1 hour. I'm lucky that it will be cheap for me as an an amateur traveller it still takes me 60 minutes and so I only have to pay the base rate plus GST. posted by: golf.geek.nz (47 ) 3:01 pm, Fri 30 Sep I don't know why the labour party is so damn anti time travel. I hardly think an interview on prime is going to "promote" the auction - look what it did for paul Holmes career

The answer to your question re: How is everybody finding out about your auction? Has to do with the time looping phenomenom stated earlier, an email was sent approximately 3 hours ago to one person and the time continuum is looping with different forwarded email addresses withthe URL Link to this auction.

I think I have identified one of the problems you may be having. The formula you describe earlier does not take into account Boussinesq's theory of triple intergration. Try using dt/dx = (1-v2/c2)/2. By combining this with Einsteins E=mc2, we find that dt/dx = (1-E.v2/m)/2. Research by E. Brown in 1986(Ph.D) gives a close approximation for v in these circumstances to be 88 mph, or 39.11 m/s. An estimate of mass (m) allowing for an adequate quantity of uranium would be 765 kg, so we now have dt/ posted by: phantomchickenz (21 ) 3:18 pm, Fri 30 Sep Everyone whos anyone knows that Boussinesqs was a no good drunk with crazy ideas.

Blimey - when I asked my last question at 2.17 there wre approx 17,000 hits - an hour later (now) it's over 22,000!!! Don't you wish your machine was working and you could just travel to when the auction had been completed? posted by: autumnwinds (1145 ) 3:18 pm, Fri 30 Sep I am gettin sick of all these questions. i do worry that people are not taking this seriously. i put a lot of heart into that machine, and I dotn just want to sell it to some goof as a novelty

we noticed a sizeable disruption on the 1st of april this year and its taken us this long to locate you and your machine,the damage caused was immense but your efforts unwittingly triggered a bio-shperoid that randomly eradicated one of mankinds next largest threat of extinction,congradulations,but don't attempt again please,there's so much at stake! posted by: moritz (36 ) 3:18 pm, Fri 30 Sep How could this be more damaging than 36 killer dolphins with poison dart guns?

... so we now have dt/dx = (1-2E)/2 = 1/2 - E. It is currently Friday afternoon so energy levels (E) are tending to zero, so lim(E->0) dt/dx = 1/2. It is now simple intergration to get to t = x/2, rearranging to x = 2t. Now, simply decide how far (in seconds) you wish to travel, multiply by two, and enter into the distance field in the 2000 x 2000 travel matrix (which I'm sure you already have). Bob's your uncle, your travelling forward in time. NOTE: Many people have indicated they wish to tra posted by: phantomchickenz (21 ) 3:19 pm, Fri 30 Sep Huh ?

Happy travelling! posted by: phantomchickenz (21 ) 3:19 pm, Fri 30 Sep Yip cause the internet is always right. I have read lots of stuff on the www which simply is not true.

I have always wanted a time machine. i have always thought it would be cool to take a coke can back to the Jurrasic period, find a dynosaur and shove it down its throat just to piss off geologists 250million years later - or go give myself a copy of windows xp and a computer to run it on 25 years ago! posted by: mr_fisk_it (49 ) 3:27 pm, Fri 30 Sep Yeah, it sounds like a cool idea, and would really confuse the bejusus out the whitecoats. I like it. if you win i will give you a 10 % discount on the winning bid

I'm a newbie to time travel. As I understand it, time is a spiral and space is a curve. If I purchased your time machine, I'm worried I'd just end up going around in circles. Does it include any navigational aids - a time/space map?? posted by: sugarloop (147 ) 4:05 pm, Fri 30 Sep i understand your concern. Time travel can be scary for beginners. Unfortunately you're on your own, with your whack theories about space and time

I dont know how they can make that guarantee, given the propritary type of interface i was using. Still would be a handy add on to have

When traveling in time, how would you ensure that you keep pace with the world? It is after all making its way through space at a fair lick, spining to boot. Perhaps thats why the extention cord wasn't long enough and maybe one of those cool power cords on a drum that unwinds itself would be the answer, or just traveling in leaps of 365 and a quarter days. posted by: simonphelon (146 ) 4:15 pm, Fri 30 Sep For any future owner to consider

You may not remember me, but I met you next month and gave you the details to fix the issues you're having with your time machine.. why are you still selling it? posted by: famanoran (11 ) 4:18 pm, Fri 30 Sep obviously only my future self would know or remember you. or know how to fix the issues. if I dont try to sell It i never meet you ?

Hi, with regards to the time travel.. How much would the depature tax be if I wanted to go back in time and witness the birth of Jesus? With the oil prices going up in the world, prices just seem to rise higher and higher! And as there is no BP, Mobil,Caltex etc in Bethlehem in the year 0000, I take it the depature tax would be too steep to get back to the present?? Cheers The Pope posted by: ajmarsters (54 ) 4:41 pm, Fri 30 Sep What witht he price of oil if you do win this auction and go back to when Jesus was born id take a very big shovel and a canteen.

This device could be the end of us all. The paradoxes (paradoxi?) that would result from anyone departing their alloted place in space and time could potentially destroy the multiverse itself or at least render it uninhabitable. That said its quite cool and would pull the chicks. posted by: simonphelon (146 ) 4:43 pm, Fri 30 Sep Yes Paradoxi would be the correct term. as to the rest of your question i have not bothered to read it.

ULTRON CRYSTALS up? They are very rare. Would you like to sell them on there own? How many buttons does this mechanism have? One fact, did you know that exact Timemachine was used in the Startrek Badies Ship. It was used for a highvelocity ultro turbo teleportation device. I have noticed that you have added alot of fancy extras to it since the Startrek owners...am i correct? posted by: vin05 (22 ) 5:21 pm, Fri 30 Sep Star Trek is for geeks.

If the mice are now in the loop, things have got VERY serious. Personally I think you should try very hard over the weekend to get the thing going and either send all the mice FAR away, or get yourself as far as you can out of their influence. If you stuff up their grand experiment they will not be pleased. posted by: garbutt (37 ) 5:54 pm, Fri 30 Sep I think its the beady little eyes that freak me out so much... There are also rumours they are the finacial backing behind Winnie Peters election campaign.

Can you transport more than one person at a time, and if not, can the machine be sent back to pick up my partner. Is the time synchronisation accurate, so we "arrive" together, I would hate for one of us to come early. posted by: akataka (37 ) 6:06 pm, Fri 30 Sep There are connections for up to two to travel simutanously, more could be added as there are an extra 3 hard wired electronic nimdo rods on the back.

Hi - just been analysing the picture of your machine before dinner and I am wondering if you should stick with it. Your big problem seems to be that there is little or no Mac componentry involved - making the machine quite unevolved. Word on the street is that Steve Jobs is just adding the finishing touches to what the pundits are calling iTravel... I'd sit on it for another 3 months - try and get some time and a half at work and save some coin. Just a thought - good luck either way. posted by: shardul_nz (59 ) 6:52 pm, Fri 30 Sep What did you have for dinner?

This auction is illegal and should be taken down like the dolphin auction was - see s.8 Time Act 1974 http://www.legislation.govt.nz/browse_vw.asp?content- set=pal_statutes ..it is an offence for unlicenced persons to sell, trade, give away or otherwise dispose of, or attempt to sell etc any device which will facilitate, or is purported to facilitate travel in time. posted by: angophora (29 ) 7:02 pm, Fri 30 Sep Yeah true shame about the dolphins, if there was one race we shouldnt be pissing off its

I have an anti-grav machine I would swap, but its missing its discombulator CX-421. Without it, it often works in reverse multiplying gravity by up to 1000X, it has killed a few people. Since the discombulator CX-421 is only built by the Zorax of planet Iconon- 9, which as you know was recently destroyed by Rii Clan - they're pretty rare. Also, whats the shipping to Alpha Centauri? posted by: pulse (108 ) 7:11 pm, Fri 30 Sep $5 shipping same for everywhere. I dont know alot about the CX-421 does it come in blue?

Is the eftpos machine still compatible. my dairies is broken? posted by: courier (44 ) 7:15 pm, Fri 30 Sep Send it to me maybe i can fix it for them?

I am the winner of this auction. The machine is indeed faulty and can only go back in time. If you don't refund my money immediately I will be forced to not make my winning bid and therefore not be in need of the refund in the first place. Either way you won't receive bad feedback and you'll still get a healthy price from the next best winning bid. Actually forget about the refund. I'm off to buy a lotto ticket for last week opps... I mean this week. Thanks posted by: motomi (134 ) 7:21 pm, Fri 30 Sep You lost me at "I am the winner"

Would you consider swapping a Mk3 Cortina Aerial for your Time Machine. posted by: yankeekiwi1 (289 ) 8:19 pm, Fri 30 Sep Perhaps? I did use to like green cortinas. Does the aerial pick up More FM?

You asked: "Do you have photos?" Yes. Yes I do. The trouble is, the monkeys are currently all on Monkey Island 2. I could take a vote as to which ones are keen to Escape from Monkey Island 2. They might be willing to succumb to your unusual ...requests. But this is all aside from the point, namely, will you auction the rights to the answers to this auction? I would not like to breach copyright. The monkeys don't like that. posted by: samgabriel (55 ) 8:19 pm, Fri 30 Sep The monkeys don't like to breach copy right. Very ethical monkeys you have. i would be happy to swap the copyrights for a monkey (one of the ethical ones), or if you win the auction the copy right goes with the time machine. Or you could donate some money to a worthy charity (The society for prevention of ethical monkeys) and its yours

Hi My dearest Mike. i have to tell you that you have captured my mind and soul. If only I were a clever woman, I could describe to you my gorgeous Inventor, how you unite in yourself the beauties of phisics .I would tell you that you are the greatest genius of all ages, and I should only be speaking the simple truth. But to put all this into suitable words, my superb one, I should require a voice far more harmonious than that which is bestowed upon my species - for I am the humble owl that posted by: westminsterchch (188 ) 8:21 pm, Fri 30 Sep Ahem, just for the record I am single, approximately thirty years of age.

Hey Dude this looks a lot like the time machine I built back in 1911 about 48 hours ago.Some bugger stole it one night while I was out with Napolian and the boys.How do I know this is infact not my one .Can you Guarantee this is another feeble attempt to copy my invention or it is infact another design all together. posted by: buss (93 ) 9:20 pm, Fri 30 Sep No Comment.

http://www.trademe.co.nz/Electronics-photography/Other/auction-36725938.htm 8/11/2007 Time machine for sale - TradeMe.co.nz - New Zealand Page 29 of 39

(RDFG-Unit)to this particular Time Machine? I know it attaches to the RDFG-panel on the TM6000 with 4 X 8mm Hex bolts, but this being a custom built, I wanted to be sure before bidding again... And also, not unlike yourself, I'm a bit shocked by the number of people who don't seem to be taking this auction seriously. Good "luck". posted by: samgabriel (55 ) 9:45 pm, Fri 30 Sep CHeers for the vote of confidence, unfortunetly it dosnt have an attachment for a Reality Distortion Field Generator but there is nothing stoping you form putting one o if you win the auction. at current price its still a bargin once you factor in the cost of your Reality Distortion Field Generator add on card.

My older brother says that them your “closed timelike curve” may be able to overcome the chronology protection conjecture but the question still remains as to whether it utilises perturbation or rather, does it restrict an objects relativistic mass in order to enable an object to travel near the speed of light and thus travel forward in time?

Sorry to tell you, your polaron capacitor is oviously destabilising the phlogiston matrix of the translucidated fnark-inhalor, making all left quarks spin right and tachyons behave like leptons.

By the look of the picture I think its wired it up wrong.

Hey Mike, We've been monitoring your auction from our mirror site TradeMe.Mars, and we feel obliged to tell you that those beta version hyper-dimensional resonators can become a little unstable if you set the travel destination beyond about 50 years. You could end up + or - a few hours from where you intended, and if the earth, as you call it, has moved as per normal you could end up a few kilometers under the crust, or else very high up in the atmosphere.

Further to the above - if I go back to 1966 to fetch the fetching Sam, she will be 20 and I will be 60 plus the time I age while travelling so how much money will I need to address the imbalance? posted by: autumn13 (65 ) 9:23 am, Sat 1 Oct .

Congratulations on inspiring so many potential time travellers. My own version containing similar componentry proved too costly to run as energy was derived from continuously passing a credit card through the slot of the eftpos-type charging converter.

Does this theory help you finish your Time Machine ? When a cat is dropped, it always lands on its feet, and when toast is dropped, it always lands buttered side down. Therefore, if a slice of toast is strapped to a cat's back, buttered side up, and the animal is then dropped, the two opposing forces will cause it to hover, spinning inches above the ground. If enough toast-laden felines were used, they could form the basis of a perpetual motion machine.

Can you tell me if the time machine has a catalytic convertor as the SPCA outlawed those in the mid 23'rd century and I'de hate to get done by a couple of catscan machines waiting behind the superhighway roadsign for some sucker to go warping past with an illegal moggie convertor !

I think you are being a little hard on NASA as it is obvious they indeed need the time machine to go back in time to save there space shuttles from a premature ending.After all space shuttles dont grow on trees you know.As for the crew of the space shuttles well they are required back it the good old USA to help clean up from the effects of a the storms they have had.Just between you and me I heard these storms were the results of the Russians testing a new weather machine. posted by: buss (93 ) 1:22 pm, Sat 1 Oct bloody Ruskies

Does it come with wafers ? posted by: mdubdub (26 ) 1:32 pm, Sat 1 Oct

Wafers are available but would be an extra cost. I sthis really relevant.

I,ve just located 2 of my own surviving time machines. There had been a third larger time machine but it was destroyed in the interests of humanity. I'm cleaning them up and checking for warpage. They seem alright. Will probably offer one of them on trade me soon. posted by: mcaninch (8 ) 1:45 pm, Sat 1 Oct

You mentioned on a thread on the message board that money raised from this auction will go to a charity. Good on you if you are genuinely donating to a charity, would that be minus the TM fees you will be charged? If this is true, what charity were you looking at?

This looks suspiciously like my time machine that was stolen from its park outside my home in Dunedin next monday. I am contacting Trademe yesterday to warn them that

you will be placing an auction for stolen goods. You can expect a visit from the police last Tuesday unless you return the vehicle within the next 3 minutes. You have been warned!! posted by: shane-0 (27 ) 2:53 pm, Sat 1 Oct .

Let's say, for the sake of argument, that you could travel back to a time before you were born. The mere fact that you could exist in a time before you were born creates a paradox. If you were born in 1960, how could you exist in 1955? posted by: djbryant (622 ) 3:08 pm, Sat 1 Oct

Ps - Mikey. It would appear you are a little premature questioning the integrity of the bidders. Please refrain from doing this again, or I may get quite cross. posted by: jase.nz (179 ) 3:28 pm, Sat 1 Oct .

Seller Comment: Ahem, Due to the recent publicity a proffessor of quantum physics got in touch to have an inspection of both my therom and the machine. He has confirmed that my theory is fatally flawed, and in fact my machine is just a phone attached to an old computer and an eftpos machine. I am incredilly embarrassed and would like to apologise to everyone who took an interest. As such the Auction will be withdrawn today at 6pm. My sincere apoogies to all the genuine time travellers out there. Peace out ! 4:50 pm, Sat 1 Oct

Hey would you trade it for a 1979 TARDIS? Its all up to date in regards to service history and another question is why didnt you switch to plutonium like the DOLORIAN? seems more efficient as Uranium is hard to find at the warehouse-always sold out.give us a buzz about the trade.TARDIS just had a paintjob and upgraded the FLUX CAPACITOR.yours looks pretty mint though....Newer model? posted by: tfl (199 ) 5:20 pm, Sat 1 Oct .

Thats pathetic. You have an opinion. And in mine, not a good one. Peace out biatch. I will continue bidding until 6pm to keep me believing in something that was so, so close to being within my grasp. RIP time machine! The Dr "Jason Gunn" ESQ posted by: jase.nz (179 ) 5:24 pm, Sat 1 Oct

Man... Why are you pulling it out? Do you have to? Because it's funny shit... if you are getting taken down by the government or some shit tell them to shove it... everybody knows its not a real time machine and if they are not happy with it being false advertising them they can fuck off posted by: steelboy (11 ) 5:28 pm, Sat 1 Oct .
