Elaborate Corkscrew

I love stuff like this and wonder what his process was when he built it. Is he the kind of builder who starts with random parts and sees what happens, or did he sit down, do the math and plan out every gear ratio. Very clean work and a lot of thought went into making sure the parts looked as good as they worked.

Elaborate corkscrew designed by British designer Robb Higgs and made by Oneofonehundred.
