Every time I run into a mention of Ada Lovelace (or Babbage), all I can think is how much I would love to have a working Babbage engine.

I wonder if someone will 3D print one??? It's just the mechanical complexity which is the main challenge!!!
I think there might be some issues involved in the material properties which might require it to be made of metal (similar to a lot of clock parts), but I'm not sure.
Aww good point and not something I'd even considered! :)
