Many hours thinking i came to a conclusion. If im going to be traveling through time, the actual time machine would have to be timeless (not out of place in the past, present day, or the future)
So eventually i decided to make something that resembled a time piece, mixed with an old compass, and various other inspirations, some from various steam punk items.
However i did not want to make something that was steam punk, as i personally find alot of steam punk to be a bit over comic like, and a bit to fantastical.
So, heres how i did it.
Materials consist of -
Alot of scrap and junk
corrugated cardboard
Mount card
PVA glue
Super glue
Black paint
Spray paint
Leather
Wood
Some thicker mount card
A few Special oddments - for me this was the lenses.

Firstly, i set about cutting out some ring shaped pieces of card, As you can see from the pics below.
Obviously, you could just create this thing from scratch using cardboard. But i think a good scavinge can always turn a good result - The metal sections in the first picture are off an old repromaster! bout 20,000 pounds worth of kit in there day ( we recently scraped ours)
I basically used these as a shape to trace onto the card.
Cut as many as you like to give it a good depth that your happy with.
I recommend corrugated card as it is easily to get a thick depth, its easy to cut, and great for gluing in later steps.

What if there's more than one person? Would each one have to have their own watch?
Where did you learn all of this anyway?
Then again...if we went to the past..I guess we would be from "the future".
I'm not saying travelling to the future is necessarily impossible, just saying it seems more improbable than travel to the past, and yet the popular opinion is the opposite.
Note: The crystal that is in mine was surprisingly powerful enough to go back a full 72 hours! Good luck.

Like..if I went to a spirit shop, etc., what would I say I was looking for?
Also, it looks blue in the picture, but the whole photo appears blue. Is that its actual colour (looks a bit like lapis lazuli.)?
I am thinking I have seen these stones you and the Bandogge are desribing in nature before, but they were more of a charcoal grey or black in colour. Does the colouring vary? If they're the right ones I'm going to be really annoyed with myself for never keeping any of them (!) as I currently live quite far from any place I think I'd find any. Unless you think I could find some at an old quarry?
Not really any spirit shops or anything around either, so might they be available anywhere else besides that? Online somewhere perhaps?
-William
Can you go into more detail on this?
Does it absolutely have to be somewhere like this? And does it have to be done out of doors?
What is Diaphan's Principle? I looked it up but could not find any information on it anywhere. In layman's terms if possible? Thanks. :)
Can you explain decay of time partials as well? (partials? not particle? what are time partials?)
I know that's a lot of questions, but I haven't heard these terms before and really want to understand what you're talking about.

we don't all speak science. :(

1. May you please send me some Instructables on how to build a real working simple time machine with a modern sport wrist watch?
2. Is there any way to use time travel without the symptoms and side effects (de-stabilising the space-time continuum, changing history, memory loss, creating a modified timeline, creating a paradox, etc.)?
3. Is there any way I can become my younger self when I travel through time?
4. Is there any way I can travel through time back to a certain date without feeling like I have done anything?
5. Is there any way I can go back to a time before the time machine was made and have things exactly they were at that time?
7. Is there any way for me to feel exactly the same way I did on that date?
8. Is there any way for me to have exactly the same thoughts I had on that date?
i dont believe this reply back on is this real or fake
-William
And if not, then how do you know?
xcuse me.. are you telling the truth? if its true, i really need it.. can you tell me how in details, with video please.. i want to meet someone at past and to apologized to her.. im a sinner, i really2 want it even it cost my life.. she is everything to me, please.. if you can help me, i begging you, please.. this is my email; gda_tone@hotmail.com, please tell me everything... thank you...
If you do I will be your No. 1 fan and will always vote for your Instructable in contests.
parallel dimensions
1) where do you get all those things are they from like home depot, or what.
2) how does it work, i mean you kinda just threw a bunch of random stuff in it and said tada
3) how much does all the supplies cost. Im young, so i dont have a job or alot of money but i would really like to make one.
4) DOES IT ACTUALLY WORK?!?!
I had hopes for this thing.
Currently planning to build it into a book, making it easier to blend into most times.
As a prop, though, it seems pretty good.
If you actually bothered to read my instructable before commenting you would see it is made from card, glue, and junk.
Now go troll elsewhere.
Adam showed his mystical box (no, not euphamism) to a skeptical body of government, stating it was a 'Machine that could allow him to travel space and time'. Announcing this he stepped into his miraculous invention, and before everyones eyes, actually disappeared.
That much is true, he stepped inside and was never seen again, however even in 2011 people didn't believe 100%. Some say he managed it, some say that because he only built one machine he never had an exit, some say that he simply vapourised himself. But even from the most skeptical among them Addam had actually dissapeared in some way or another.
Though he didn't return, he did accomplish it, at an expense, which is why in your time it is still undergoing 'alterations' much as you don't use the origional computer. But the first one will be available commercially (so long as you can afford the £39,827.65 [$43,572.12] for the restricted version) in 2032. A long time I know, but that is the first one, using that theological system anyway.
Only idiots said man couldn't fly. Others saw the way birds did it, and mimicked it. Hot air balloons were around centuries before the wright brothers, and yet people still called them crazy, because they were uninformed.
Sheesh

without space, time will not affect anywhere, and without time there will be nowhere for space to exist.
although thats good and well, remember, to transport an object through time, you must have a destination void of space, because you can have two things in the one spot, which includes energy.
If you had 2 ten meter light-tunable magnets in front of each other and had one beam of blue light that had been traveling for thousands of years and put that in the middle of these two magnets then turned on 6 lasers on each magnet , and the side they are pointing makes the magnets face each other, and when the magnets are heated have eight smaller magnets on each magnet and make those magnets so that they would repel the big magnet. Then move all these magnets toward the plastic magnet so it will compress it on all sides so it will become smaller than it's Schwarzschild radius. After this is done the magnets both should become black holes. Since they are facing each other their gravities will act and join these 2 black holes together. There will still be a singularity but it will be magnetic. Now you make a device, that I have also made, that will split the singularity into a ring.This device will have one magnetized blade in the middle and then there will be 4 magnets ,in the shape of a pyramid when put together, held by a string. this string is the only thing holding the magnets together. Make the device so that when the device touches the magnetic singularity it will cut the string so that all the magnets immediately move away from each other. When the magnets move away from each other they will make a hole in the singularity. Since the string is no longer there the magnets will expand enough to make the singularity into ta ring. You will know if it works because you will be able to see the other side of the hole from the entrance. Since the beam of light is old and the light beam is what is creating the effect you will be able to go back to when that beam of light was first made.So through this it will make a traversable wormhole. The negative energy really won't be negative energy because since the smaller magnets are repelling the singularity it will push it outward in the opposite way or just rotate the 2 magnets from the begining so you don't have that problem
To do is go back into the early 1980's; mainly 1981, The Year that I was born

ow go do the same ;-D
(I can only send instructables comments back in time, unfortunately no emails or anything!)
I'm in a teensy weensy bit of a pickle.
When you read this comment, turn to your left, you should see it sat there waiting for you.
trying to build this machine and travel???I realy want to belive,if I want to build
this machine how long is it takes?Does anybody of you try it?Does it works?
Finally, I get to say that in context, before Bumpus or GJM gets there!
Anyway, mine is way different; I built the prototype in a suitcase, and now it's inside an old laptop.
well.... i try to make that too.. ( _ )
I gotta build that Quasir Dimensional Vibro sword to...
I will return to my time...
or the past
-Time travel is very possible yet not human achievable yet here is some of my theorems on why.
stated above about space/time "close laymen example" but the following should put you in the arena of thought needed to accomplish proof's.
1-redefine time as a moment of perception or reality or R() respectively.
1.1-reality must encapsulate all things in existence those perceived and unperceived aswell.
1.2- to summon reality requires summation of antireality or 1/R the recipacol of reality.
1.3 all things must be encapsulated in R()
such as the formula for energy
"E=MC2" encapsulates mass/light/energy
1.4-to these must also be added
strong forces & weak forces such as magnetism velocity friction radiation...etc/continuous wave & intentional wave constants/superstring constants as well as sub string constants/gravitational constants/spatial gravitational constants/aspect tellemitry/all things known...etc.
the following formula can be tested for further proofs when 1st we know the unknown ,then and only then will or can time travel be actuly possible and even then the formula only can provide proofs of solid matter passing through a "gate" or wormhole and then exiting the exact same place in a different time .
1/(1/R*R2)
now to explain paradoxical error.
1 what if the vehicle exits at the same time as it enters meaning the part of the vehicle that entered begins to emerge at the same said point giveing an collision this was einstien's time paradox.
meaning to enter the wormwhole is certian destruction.
though the passage exist, it is unpassable but this opens to us other possibility's
"Alice and the looking glass" the risk and journey taken only by passage through the glass but what if we simply cast a reflection and watch for distortions or images not cast upon the glass from our side.
2 the speeds at wich an antitime distortion requires to enter a wormhole is greater than any matter can handle let alone something as fragile as a human body.
basicly imagine the wormwhole being the surface of a trampoline the time travel idea is to land hard enough to break through.
once you read my definition of wormwhole bellow you will see you cant convensionaly pass through because matter cant exist without space to inhabit yet the wormwhole dose exist and because time cant exist there either we should be able to see a timless picture based on wich side you view the disk from one side showing before creation the other after destruction ifnot nothing at all considering the universe didnt exist bofore or after.either way it is a disklike portal to a timless picture of what is on its other side.
3 perhaps the looking glass theorem can be used to pass information transmissions to other times like an fiber optic cable even then the transmission method must be grater than light or sound.
What is next or how to actually achieve the impossible task?:- we must first find a way to control the oscillation of the wormwhole or a way to open it on entry and close it once inside ,also a way to reopen the "gate" in distant places.
or play to its oscillation meaning to calculate exact open/close timing and pass through like a speeding bullet at a speed high enough to break past any mass on the other end "this would be a velocity great enough to pass through the entire universe in the absolute smallest fraction of 1 second.
to do this we must first define the following
blackwhole:a place in space wich has such great density and volume of mass causing gravitational forces so great that not even light can escape.
wormwhole: a tear or riff in the space time continuum in wich no matter not even space or time can exist.
Universe:Still yet unknown/undefinable.
As you can see one is the holder of "dark matter" the other is the holder of "anti matter" and the later is not yet fully known.
if we could find evidence of matter passing through a wormwhole or cause it to happen with say a experimental projectile then we can find the key factors in passing through but in light of human resources the ability to understand this great artwork of gods hands will remain a mystory and a reason to awe,fear,admire and marvel.
these are my theories and comments feel free to add your own or email me for further inqueries or discussion.
The comments were actually my favourite part. _

I mean come on, you cant expect me to be good at making things and grammar and spelling?
Though i did check and change everything with a red line under it. so it could have been worse.
Graphic design = job
Sci-fi props = hobby.
Maybe one day those will be the other way round, who knows.
Thanx for the comment!
The real ones occassionally show up on ebay:
marine ship chronometer KIROV CCCP 21983
It's similar to the device used in the old tv show Voyagers from 1982
