That is really cool. But I'd be onto my second glass waiting for that thing!

I have an inventor friend who will be truly sad he didn't invent this first.

While very cool, I can see why it did not become a common household item. The true design intent was to separate a fool from his money!

Very Rube Goldberg, loved seeing it. Pretty sure it is a Government design....very expensive, complicated system used to solve a simple problem that really did not exist in the first place.

Agreed the mechanical geek in me likes it, but not practical.
By the time it pours a glass;
1 you worked up a sweat from cranking
2 the wine has actually aged a little longer

I like it but sure would like to see all the mechanics involved to make it work.

My son and I made a marble maze when he was in high school. 6' tall about 30" square and it has 5 tracks down. Fun to watch the marble go down.

The shot they never showed you was that after all that the fellow who picked up that glass bumped it against the brass-work, the glass smashed and the wine spilled all over the place... ::

Then the second bottles cork ripped apart and half of it's still stuck in the bottle!
