Machine rate is 120/7 = 17.143

***********

Amusingly, it took me several days to see this construction method, which I will dub "Three Stacked Wiggles."  The main problem with is is that it utilizes bricking, and quantum bonds do not like being bricked.  That led to the funny pipeline routing you see here.

The bottom pipeline produces single wiggles with preserved quantum bonds, 12 per machine period.  The top pipeline produces 2-wiggle bricks, 18 per machine period.  The top pipe donates surplus iron singletons to the lower, and the bottom pipe donates 5 complete wiggles back to the top.

Other than giving rise to that silly routing scheme, the presence of quantum bonds doesn't affect the puzzle very much.  Mostly, it saves debonders.  I particularly enjoy the elegance with which the lead-attached quicksilver projects.  Look, Ma, no arms!
