Marble machine chronicle 

When I first started watching Denha I was single, now I am married with two children and my older son who is 4, nearly 5 absolutely loves these. When people come round with their kids they are surprised at how their children will quietly watch these videos in total amazement.

I actually found this video again! This was one of the videos I loved watching as a kid

I remember watching this video a long time ago, it got me interested in marble tracks, and I ended up getting some. Best toys I ever had, even as a teen I still play with them. Thank you so much denha for introducing me to them!

Man this takes me back, I remember back when I would boot up my grandparents old Mac and would search for these videos. I miss those times, it’s sad to think that they’ll never be the same again. Cherish your memories, people.

Ah yes, the RU-vid’s recommended section has once again brought us all together to enjoy this nostalgic video

How very clever you are denha. My Father used to make items like these and he called them Thing-a-ma-jigs, I was so taken by them as a child and now as an adult. They are great memories of my Father who has been gone now 27 years.

I finally found this after years, I used to watch it when I was a kid, and its still as cool as I remember it👍

Oh this was the *shit* when i was younger. Glad to see it's still great now

youtube decided to bring me back to this after all these years

What an inspirational commitment to craftsmanship! I especially like the “monkey-motion” and clever use of levers and gears to reset the bearings. A+

I'm a highschool freshmen and watching this takes me back before I went to school

I Can't believe this is so nostalgic! I loved it when I was little! 👀

Parabéns! Você é muito bom! Admiro tamanha engenharia!

These are so cool, and I'd really like to own one, but I will not buy one, because I would feel terrible to separate your collection. It truly is amazing! I hope one day that the world can find a place to display them forever.

It is insane how long I have been watching this video for over and over again over the course of 7 years. *Wow.*

i used to create chronicle circuits when i was a kid, i dont know why youtube recomemded me this but right know I'm smiling. You, sir, are awesome and made my day =)

6:06 - My favourite mechanism, so cool! 5:03 - That wood looks so well embellished, just wow!

Freaking awesome, I like the use of the wooden spoons lol

Holy shit the amount of nostalgia from watching these videos.

Man, this is just pure nostalgia! I loved watching this video when I was younger! In fact, I would ask my mam if I could get these off Santa for Christmas. If you've watched this, you've earned my respect!

I wish I had one on my desk, just stare at it for hours. Love how its interchangeable.

i can watch this all over again :D

you're truly blessed, denha, to build such amazing things, and we're blessed that we get to see these contraptions.

Man, those are just BEAUTIFUL creations. Fiendish in their complexity ... made me laugh like a child , particularly when I saw the "marbles" being catapulted. Simply amazing!

Cara, eu nunca vi nada igual! Parabéns pra você meu irmão! Gratidão pôr compartilhar!

Really being a wood worker I know the effort and creativity involved in it.. Really hatts off From INDIA🇮🇳

Wow just wow! Cud watch these awesome pieces of engineering for hours!

These videos are proving to be an inspiration, I am beginning work on a marble machine of my own!

amazing works. really really amazing. even a toy. it's still amazing works...

I almost cried at the sheer amount of awesome! Thank you, good sir!

I checked out the finished product 1st. Outstanding work,you are what they call a Wizard.

Watching these marble run videos were my childhood

idk but if i had all this i would watch it thousand times

I would love to have one of these constantly running in my room.

I LOVED to watch this videos when I was a little kid, 6 or 7 years ago, and it still fascinates me till this day! Awesome machines! So calming and awesome! EU AMAVA Assistir esse vídeo quando eu era mais pequeno, a uns 6 anos atrás, trazia uma calma e me fascinava, ainda me fascina! Belas máquinas!

Genus!!!! Well thought out. Enjoyable to watch pro form flawlessly. Good job

the Catapult on @4:54 was awesome!... I like all of them though... nice work

Amazing sound,,, your a very talented I want this 😃😃

Very very cool machines! I love Gravitrax - and I wish I had such machines for my marbles to get them higher! There can only one marble be transported upstairs. Your machines do hundreds and more! I like them!

Marble machines are a physical manifestation of math. Simply beautiful!

I like the twin ladle with the rube Goldberg machine.

I would never lose a marble if I could make such elegant machines of beauty! Well done!!

Ok I could watch and play with these for hours. Frigid awesome. Love the interchangeability

Ай кудесник, ай молодца! Спасибо за идеи, как раз с ребенком хотели собирать на подобие, а тут столько сразу идей! Спасибо от меня и моих сыновей, особенно Вовы ;)

Bloody hell! There's some clever people out there!

"Now, when that young fella told me what he proposed to build, I thought he'd done lost his marbles! Guess he found them."

Very creative and all of them work like clockwoek! Really tiny pieces with such elaborate schemes and details, very impressive!

Yes, this what a genius looks like. I have deep respect for your work and your carpentry. You inspire a lot of people find a hobby in the creative crafts of engineering, architecture, design and mechanics. This is extremely beautiful and even sublime. It's a warm welcome in my heart.

When asked: What do you do with your time? Answers: Mess around with my marbles, wanna see?

you simply rock...your art is beyond words can admire...keep up the good work

Fascinating as always! :D

Physics! Love this! You are Grand Master for Marble Machine 🙌🏻

I am interested in making something like this... (But much more simple to start) How/What would you recommend I start?

Are the plans for these available? Pretty nice craftsmanship!

I was only 7 when I started watching content like this, im soon to turn 17 in October. God I love Revisiting my childhood once last tike before I have to leave it behind.

freaking cool marble machines. Awesome!

Yes!

You should put these in a museum.

Потрясающе, сколько труда и таланта и смекалки! 🥇👍👏👏👏👏👏

You, sir, are an absolute genius!! Wonderful engineering projects, every single one. Bravo!! 👏👏👏👏☘️

the slingshot was the best

You should make a website and sell these

You are the Master! I have tried and tired and I can't come close to your level of skill and ingenuity.

I aspire for this level of creativity, we'll done! I especially like the modular design, really elevates the project. Brilliance 💯

Hi. Where do you get your parts, like motors and gears and drive belts? Thanks

Brilliant.... how to learn in 2019 students

now my childhood can rest in peace. thank you :)

I like your machines! I like the interlocking aspect you use.

How to learn to create stuff like this?

Lol look what Wintergatan did

the different lifts you've made are amazing!

Great ideas. I am working at a marble run myself. This movie gives me some inspiration. Especially how to transport the marbles up again.

The machine names are Windmill/stairs the tilter the flick flack the scoop the motorized catapult the gear and the crane

2020?!! +62 ?

Wow!! These were amazing!!

Mecanismos fantásticos, parabéns meu amigo, Isso é um ótimo trabalho de engenharia!

November 2019

do you make these? because i what one!!!!!

I could watch this for hours! Great work.

I like the modular design. This is awesome.

$$$?

just wasted 15 perfectly good minutes. but it rivals "elementary"

This guy spent a lot of time into these gadgets and he did an awsome job:)

I LOVE YOUR WORK!!!!!

нахуя

All I have to say is these things are so damn neat, I could watch them for hours.

your marble liftig mechanisms are awesome oO great great great job

Esse cara é um gênio da física ;) Muito legal e criativa as idéias dele, muito bom! Gostei!

I could watch this all day!

Congratulations, you are the true master of your trade! Thanks for sharing!

Reliving these memories when i was a kid

Every single piece is mind blowing one from another🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞🤞

The level of craftsmanship is admirable. Respect.

i remember watching this when i was 6, i was so obsessed with marbles at that time XD. i had collections of multiple types and i had like 50 marbles lol

You are an amazing inventor, this is so great and entertaining

its awsome how you make interchangeable parts.Great job!

素晴らしい！これは本当に素晴らすぃぃぃぃ！ 木工と金工とメカニカルな技が見事に融合してこのミニマムな世界を作り上げているのが良い！盆栽や箱庭が新たな次元に到達したようだ。。

The engineering behind these little modular machines is just otherwordly.

I was soooo touched by your techniques. Unbeilivable.... Thanx :D

A superb idea to make them modular. More to experiment with and enjoy! Btw, It would be great if the modules have Deco Art billboards like those of the Broderbund Software Bros. ;-)
