Those are some happy little girls . <| sep |> You should create a beanie then ask them to license it . <| sep |> Remember , Stargate is actually just a giant superconductor , nothing more , nothing less . The problem of making a Stargate is to make it home in on a gate from a pool of gates . More importantly , you need to receive incoming travelers and store their data , rematerialize them . All those are technical and software problems . If you could make a superconductor ring out of anything , that works . Orlin ' s gate did nothing of those . It only could connect to one gate no dialing and homing in , and it did not receive any incoming warmhole . It was outgoing only , and one use only . Also , if you have enough knowledge in Chemistry , you could put together two things to make another element . I ' m just thinking what Orlin did was with higher knowledge and made what he needed out of what he could get . Naquadah may not have been something he could make , though . That should have been the biggest reason the gate being onetime only thing .
