Self-explanatory

The original technical description of the "turbo-encabulator" was written by British graduate student John Hellins Quick (1923-1991). It was published in 1944 by the British Institution of Electrical Engineers Students’ Quarterly Journal in an article titled "The Turbo-Encabulator in Industry" by "J.H. Quick, Student."
More details at Wikipedia. Posted for old friend George Anderson and other classmates who became engineers.

  1. I believe this is the original video version of the Turbo Encabulator:

    The same actor (Bud Haggart?) appeared in a short yet brilliant "documentary" entitled "The Centrifuge Brain Project."
