Avery: Oh, dear me! I suppose I never have. I'm ever so busy, dear friend, I don't have the time to tinker and build. So very busy. I'd be delighted to find the spare time to construct one of my very own, but what would it do? I wouldn't like it if it were useless. Useless things should be forgotten. In the end, I much prefer watching to constructing, be it with clockwork or with devices made by the ever so fantastic Mr. Goldeberg. I suppose I'd be clumsy with such small parts anyhow.

But I suppose you trust me enough to realize I would never make anyone do anything petty. Isn't that right?
