    My very first big invention. Displays letters A-P. M is sideways because I couldn't figure out how to make it. Feedback please!

    Its looks good!
    I would say a good next step would be to compact the driver so you can fit more letters or maybe add some more segments so you can have a right side up 'M'

    Dont use OIL, its changes to gas and broke simulation. Use sand or salt.

    lol, I have found out the hard way that the full range of letters is not possible with a 7 seg...

    But now the challenge is on! i will make a smaller, complete a-z 16 seg display

    edit-
    Done, all letters, in 16 seg LCD. Some letters look a little funny, but I think its a good piece of work...

    It can be found here or by searching 'user:kamikai' in the powdertoy.
