In this chapter, we see Concept’s five phases as an exploratory demo where a shaft, drum, register, punch, and gears mesh in order. The aim is not a full restoration of the historical machine, but to make Read -> Rule -> Write -> Move -> State readable as a machine decomposed so its parts do not move at the same time.
First look at the whole and confirm that the timing shaft creates the beats of one instruction. Do not rush Step here; read which part is in charge of which beat.
The Mechanical Demonstrator is not the Bombe. It is the chapter that pins the Turing machine’s abstract operations into a sequence of parts that the GLB node contract and the runtime highlight can stay in sync with.

Chapter 3No Step yet — read the five beats and the part mapping first
The entrance of Chapter 3Convert abstract operations into machine beats and a part contractThe Mechanical Demonstrator is not a restoration of the Bombe but the chapter that connects the five phases read in Concept/Mechanism to the GLB nodes and the runtime highlight.Answer the discovery check and the Timing shaft drives the five beats.
How to read the designThe Timing shaft creates the order, and each part receives the payload one at a timeIn this stage the mapping is the lead rather than operation. That Read, Rule, Write, Move, and State do not all happen at once is the basis of the mechanical demo.The current entrance is Timing shaft.
