The procedure is still performed today, for both medical and non-medical reasons.

Thanks to Q and M, Bond had access to a constant supply of gadgets that conveniently saved our hero from whatever jams he got into.

I wanted the base to look like marble so I did a Google image serach for large images with the keyword marble and found this great image which I printed on a color laser and Modge-Podged onto a wooden base. I made the base with four block feet and I added trim from Michael’s that I had painted in the same manner as the monitor’s sheet metal.
