The Almighty Dwarven Calculator

What can you do with 75,368 mechanisms?
I have made a calculator. It can add, subtract, divide and multiply. It can take inputs of up to 999 and give answers of up to 999999 and 3 decimal places.

How to use

The in control house (shown above calculating 7x191) there 6 groups of leavers each group corresponds to an input number, and each leaver within a group corresponds to a number (in the same pattern as on a cell phone). Once the leavers that represent the desired numbers have been pulled (only one leaver per group or things will go wrong).

Then select the desired function (+ * - /) by pulling the indicated leaver. The selected function will be displayed.

Then select pull the equals leaver, go and make a cup of tea, some soup perhaps compose a sonnet (it takes a long time even for simple equations).

Your answer will then be displayed in glorious digital numbers.
