This is part of a larger work-in-progress, but I thought this phase completion warranted posting somewhere... Warren |

Fantastic work, I have thought of a muchly similar plan! This is begging to be immersed in a murky green liquid  |

Yeah, I'm hoping to add some lubrication. That should get those synapses firing!  This will form a portion of my complete computational engine, the remainder being the mind-machine interface, control panel, and human interface peripherals. Unfortunately I'm a tad lazy, so it may take a while yet. Cheers, Warren |

Where did you get that cerebellum from? That's a good looking brain, but I agree it needs some mineral spirits and perhaps some glow-wire.

That's a mighty fine brain - I trust it's part of a grander casemod scheme? Where did you get that cerebellum from? That's a good looking brain, but I agree it needs some mineral spirits and perhaps some glow-wire.
That looks very similar to my brain, which would mean that he got it from Erasmus Bay & Sons. A search for "rubber brain" "brain prop" and so on will find plenty.  The liquid is water with a little fluorescein, under UV light. Needs bubbles... |

They're armoured electrical cables which I bought for my 1926 Swift. You can buy them from Paul Beck... http://www.vintagecarparts.co.uk/en/list+electrical~cable~armoured/He actually sells all sorts of vintage car goodies, if you're that way inclined Warren |

You can either get the brains from eBay, or you could always do a Burke & Hare  Warren |
