Despite the complexity of internal wiring of the rotors, being stuck with rotors I, II and III in that particular order without being able to replace the rotors or the reflector (which, when solved with software, is hardly a problem) this still provides for a very limited (albeit large) keyspace. Lack of the Steckerboard is not particularly helpful either. But overall, it seems like you've done a very decent job recreating the core functionality of the machine. :) Thumbs up!
You are correct and it looks to be complete. I had a different design philosophy and wanted large buttons and be as simple to operate as possible. I would like to continually improve it over time--more rotors and plug board would be obvious ones.

Unfortunately there's no plugboard on it. Actually there's a now application called "MYENIGMA" that is a full ENIGMA machine, even with plugboard.
All the best and try to improve this one.
