Morse-Vail Telegraph Key
thingiverse
In 1844, Alfred Vail crafted this pivotal telegraph key, reportedly from the very first Baltimore-Washington line, as a refinement of Samuel Morse's pioneering transmitter. My model is based on a precise 3D scan of the original key obtained from the Smithsonian Institution's 3D Digitization website.

These bolts are securely attached to the knobs, while the nuts are firmly embedded in recesses underneath the key.
