You did an amazing job of standardizing and defining location pins with the interchangable input/output locations on each module. I’ve never seen such precision!
coming back here because i forgot about this channel shortly after starting high school. i used to watch this video and the channel as a whole SO many times as a kid and re i am, almost an adult reminiscing… and thinking about how is this is greg asmr material
Wonderful work, absolutely hypnotizing . I love the way you made it modular so the different sections can get the effect of different deliveries of bearings.
Friend, I really liked the machine, congratulations! Please, I would like to know if you sell, or tell me where I can buy one of these. thanks - Brasil
Very tedious work pays off. I like how everything interchanges. I love the volume that it displays. I believe these machines are one of my favorites (that interchange). Added this one to the playlist!
I was just wondering how much time will it take for someone to complete this machine and what passion drives anyone to see it completed,"patience must be the key and creativity the lock",its beautiful indeed.
I LOVE this! Kinetic sculpture is SOOOOOOOOO cool! Nice handiwork and beautiful finishing! Is it possible to introduce ONE ball of a different color so we can track its adventures around the course? It would be interesting to see the different paths it takes. Nice job!
Thanks for sharing denha, and congrats again on a beautiful piece. Your videos inspired me to start my own marble machines last year. Hopefully I will have some modules done and I can share some videos with you in exchange for the ones you've shown all of us.
could u make a hopper for the wheel that only added marbles when there was an open spot? I was thinking a wire could run along the wheel as it turns, and when it hits a hole without a marble it would release a marble to go in. this would mean all u would have to do is press the on button and it would prime itself and if marbles fell out, or u switch to modules that hold marbles longer then it would add them automatically. maybe add a catch off of the bottom reservoir that would kick out extra marbles if u switch back to smaller modules
...And I thought lava lamps were awesome. I like the second application the most...where the marbles are all going down the drain :P Thanks for the upload.
Amazing. This is super. Ask Newton to put different machines with chronicles on it.Here are a few ways to put chronicles on it:--------------------------------------------------------------------#1. Twin ladle ball track#2. Ball track like a Donkey Kong#3. Spinner (with wire detector) ball track#4. / Final chronicle: RS, FF, and logic (switcher)
There is a similar one but mostly on vertical and with balls the size of tennis balls in the departure area of the Brisbane International Airport... Has 2 alternate paths and chain driven elevator.
+ponda9000 It was my mistake. I was not paying attention to where the balls all lined up before they were released onto their paths. It seemed like they were released and they could fall into any one of the 4 paths. It was late and I was watching on my tiny phone. LOL

+winterloggan My guess is the wheel has slices where an ejector passes through. The ejector is like a little ramp inside that pushes the balls out as it rolls them by.
There is a small dent in each hole pointing towards the center of the wheel, the balls dont fall out at the bottom because the dent is above them, but when they reach the top the ball rolls out. Also there is a small metal wire halfway up the wheel when the balls would normally fall out, to prevent it from coming out before it reqches the top.
Tuskor505 Once it passes 90 degrees it can fall out at any point. Unless you gave them a cubby or a safety bar to make sure they don't fall out premature. So either they can fall out too soon or you put work than you needed.
TaterWaiter - "NOT CALLED BALLS THERE CALLED MARBLES" Firstly, THEY'RE called, not THERE called, but secondly, you're wrong. Marbles are usually made of glass, though early ones were made of marble. These are steel balls, made for use in ball bearings. Go on Ebay and search for "marbles". First, it wants to know what kind of marbles you want, and offers the categories of Glass, Cat's eye, Swirl, Mixed, German, Lattice, Plastic, Stone. It doesn't mention steel. Then search for "Steel balls", and you find the type of balls used in this machine.
I dont know why people are hating about something so cool that he did. Seriously, there is a lot of trash that people do and upload but he did something really interesting and I see a lot of complaining and shit in this comments. Congratulations man! Nice work!
BTW...You are a pure GENIUS my friend...and I do mean that. The tornado platform that's added at 11:20 is absolutely nothing short of thinking outside the box. It appears "easy" or simple at first glance, and it would be easy to now replicate, but originally THINKING of this idea is the genius part! Thinking of the station that uses the weight of 4 steel balls to trigger their release, and then the weight of them pulling the ramp down to the toilet bowl platform, and then raising the track back up and out of the way so that they can race around the circle! Again, now it's simple, but starting from a blank piece of paper and designing all of these is NOT easy. Especially additions like the one described here. I would love to own a piece of your art...really. I want to buy one and put it onto my desk at work and let it run whenever I am in my office. I was reluctant to put this part into my comment, because I didn't want people thinking that the compliment was so that I could get one of your pieces...but I could care less what people on YT think. EXCELLENT work of art! I just want one module with the 4 balls causing the release, and then the do into the toilet bowl... then returning to the lift... simple, and easy to keep on my desk.
