Anyone else with deep fascination of "analog" or "mechanical" or "visible" technology? (lemmygrad.ml)

I'm getting a hour-glass.

Much better than a regular timer when you're doing the "Pomodoro" method and have to get something done. But I also have a nice lava-lamp, which is great when you're listening to music. And a record-player for vinyl CDs. And fidget toys for my ADHD and Autism (to stim while I'm doing something).

I'll be honest: I need eitiher:

Portability

Analog

If I can't carry it or if it's not mechanical, the i don't care.

I once saw an old X ray machine in the basement of a hospital. It was the most flash Gordon looking thing I have seen in my life. It took a good portion of my will power not to press buttons.

Art deco shit is my jam.

I'm guessing that's what you mean by "Flash Gordon" here.
