Re: [Friends of DigiComp] Super-Digi-Comp 8Bit Flip flop

Yes, yes, yes!
 
Can you detail your progress along with some graphics of your piece
parts and drawings?  I would love to develop along with you and hopefully
assemble a machine like this at the same time.  There might even be
a benefit if some of the other members here participated in such a "group
development"  with feedback.
 
Just a suggestion -- it  would be great if we could follow along...
 
Fred.

Hi all, I am an electro-mechanical engineer, and I am simply fascinated by the
digi-comp.

I have just built a laser CNC cut stainless steel version, will post video and
photo's as soon as I can, but now I am on to a bigger task.

Upscaling the digi-comp to a super digicomp.

I am thinking 8 flip-flops (the sliding 1's and 0's) and at least 20
logic banks (clock rods).

Any thoughts on this?

Regards, and keep up the good work.

Andries

Dan, "Nobody seems to care." When did you bring it up? Powered logic gates have been simulated in Phun. Go to http://phunland.com/phunbox/ and search "logic...
