I started building this device with no preconceived ideas. By 2022, 26 years since these plans were shared to the whole world, to my surprise, no one else has ever built it. (Or, at least, it was not talked about or shared on the Internet.) Another puzzling idea was that the Cs must have shared the plans knowing all too well that Laura was not going to build it. They must have something else in mind and I took it as a challenge.
In 1996 that would have been built, probably, using molds and slipcasting from clay. In 2022, 3D printers and PLA filament became affordable for my budget and that technology would have provided very exact products.
Only after it was built, I found out that the ancients had been erecting these fluted spiraling columns all over Northern Africa and Asia Minor. As everything else built for and by the giants, its purpose and usage became a mystery. But, since it is so much harder to manufacture such spiraling grooves then straight ones, I would imagine the builders were extracting something out of it. Or, maybe, the were also asked to stands them up and they couldn't have refused?
The Cs defined it as a transceiver. In the imperfect implementation, it may work better as a transmitter then a receiver. Thus, I wouldn't have seen any visible or sensible output from it, but it doesn't mean it is not working as a transmitter... And I totally agree, "there can be many variables" involved. I did spend a lot of time sitting and musing within that triangle enclosure over the last 2 years. If nothing else, it helped me to relax and "to go away from it all". I placed a silver coin and a stone that the Cs selected from me on top of a column at one time. It is said that the little folk (that live in the woods) like such offerings. Several months later I found the columns toppled, which would have required some fore to do and couldn't have been done by the wind alone. The silver coin and the crystal were thrown in the grass and I got them back. In summer 2022 and 2023 I had placed pool size water vessels nearby and watched generations of tree frogs being nursed in there. At least, someone already benefited from my experiment in a big way.
