The Corkscrew by Rob Higgs - Fantastic machine
In case you missed this on various blogs the other day, I really must ask that you check out this machine. Mechanical sculptor Rob Higgs assembled an machine that opens a wine bottle and pours a glass. He uses many old parts, some as is, some modified and recasts them in bronze. The result is astounding.
Here is an article on The Corkscrew. Here is a link to a video of The Corkscrew by Rob Higgs.
