Built for the 2013 MocOlympics, against my opponent Stuart Lucas and his amazing entry.
Category:
Rube Goldberg: Always a classic... Build a working Rube Goldberg machine. A machine that performs a simple task using over the top mechanics. You do not HAVE to have a video showing it work (videos are preferred if you can) but at the very least must have pics of the machine working at every stage.
Another late entry. I was not able to build this whole week, being so busy, so this was put together in 2 days.
Unfortunately, I was not able to get it to work in time, so my dad quickly put together an edited video to show you how it SHOULD work. The idea is over complexing of putting a ball into a hole.
Best of luck Stuart!

Nice job! It's a bummer you weren't able to get it to work properly, because it looks really neat.

Thanks! Yeah, it wouldn't cooperate in the 1 hour time slot we had.

Still looks great! I've always wanted to do a Rube-Goldberg machine, but I don't have idea idea where to start.
Besides, I have half a dozen things I want to finish before December. Plus school. : P

Thanks man! I should try it, there are fun, but taking the video of it working is a pain!
