The presentation of a digital application with purely analog methods is philosophical gold. Can't praise this enough...

Brilliant - where was this idea when I was a kid in the 70's - before I got into electronics - I would have built two these and used them to score table tennis. Love it!.

It works great for small crowds. For bigger crowds, you need make minor adjustments so some of the segments flip much further. This makes it more legible at different viewing angles

Don't you just hate it when your hand becomes sentient and steals your pencil?

This is one of the coolest DYIs I've ever seen. Got excited to make it until you got to the spokes and protractor stage. I would need more specific directions there. Well done, though!

IMPRESSIVE, this complimente is not enough to escribe this piece of work!

This is why imagination is the key to success. Studying is only a 3rd of that.
