We would have to wait 47 years to get access to the machine again.

[mainiac]

We need to get the machine to a safe place.  Let's send a message and money back 20 years ago to our nephew what's-his-name telling him to create a secret underground chamber under a warehouse somewhere.  Then we should travel back to yesterday to arrange for transportation.  When we have arranged for transportation, return to our workshop and wait for ourselves to travel back in time.  Then take the machine to hiding and prepare for our first trip into the future.

[Derekristow]

I don't think we can move the machine.  Tell him to have the warehouse thing ready by 10 years ago, then send the plans to yourself 10 years ago.  Build the machine in the warehouse.  Also send yourself this very plan and have yourself follow it so as not to violate causality by the first leap.

[Grek]

Derekristow is correct. It's bolted into the walls and stuff. More of a Pan-Chronological Teleportation Shed, than anything else.

Is it not easily mobile or not mobile at all?  If we had a week could we move it?  A month?  Could we build another one somewhere?

[Grek]

No. Only with help. Yes.

It is as mobile as a carwash. There's alot of special equipment which is expensive to reproduce, and you need a special building to set it up in.

[mainiac]

Can we draw up some detailed schematics of it in a couple days in case we lose the original?  After that, we should visit the future!

[Frajic]

Oh come on, guys. You've forgotten the most important thing to do before any adventure.

Retrieve arms from chest.

You could, given a week...

[Urist McOverlord]

Send a letter to yourself ten years in the past. Instruct yourself to keep a detailed schematic of the device, and to construct it somewhere hidden on the isle of Sicily, where it shall be safe from the French. Then, in this timeline, destroy the machine. It will never have been here, but we'd best be safe until we can figure out exactly what time-travel does to the space-time continuum here.

EDIT before I forget:
Include a reminder that this letter needs to be sent to yourself to ensure continuity of the timeline. Also, remind yourself that who but yourself would know of the time machine. After all, we don't want our advice to not be taken.

We just invented it.  We need to send back the original plans.  Otherwise this.

We can't go to 5000.1. We need to go to 4999 years, 364 days, 23 hours, 59 minutes, 59 seconds C.E, instead.

[Megaman]

I agree With Aklyon's idea.
