I know what you mean.
I'd been hoping to see it since I met the two guys who made it at the Chicago Great Waters Expo a few years back. It was just those two, granted one was a physicist or something like that. They demo-ed all around the area, made a lifetime supply of leaders, and told me last year that it had been gathering dust. I don't know if it was just visiting the museum for the gathering (it was in the rod shop, which is also under construction, tough with the economy for the museum). I'll ask.

ps -I didn't fire it up, but it had a control panel with up and down arrows, I thought for setting the number of turns, and three hooks at that end (the two legs on the outside hooks so the number of turns would be identical, then together on the middle hook for back turning, I assume)
