The
Materializer was completed. Ned Quinn stood back, wiped his hands,
and admired the huge bank of dials, lights and switches. Several
years and many fortunes had gone into this project. Finally it was
ready. Ned placed the metal skullcap on his head and plugged the
wires into the control panel.
Il
Materializzatore era finito. Ned Quinn arretrò, si pulì le mani e
ammirò l’enorme banco di quadranti, luci e interruttori. Diversi
anni e molte fortune erano stati riversati in quel progetto.
Finalmente era pronto. Ned si piazzò in testa l’elmetto di metallo
e inserì i fili nel pannello di controllo.
