Oh, well pardon me, you're heading to college. Give my regards to all those at the community collegium. I'm sure you'll do great at Quantum Theory and Mechanics or have high marks at Business Development and Practice.
First, the fact you don't seem to think without the use of profanity says, very much, how your vocabulary matches your intellect: lacking. You shoulda' stayed in school. Punk rock died out much the same way disco did; with a wimper long ago. Banging on dollar store instruments, doesn't make it
What it comes down to, is you made an assenine question and now YOU are trying to justify it when you got called out
I don't feel stupid, I feel pity. It's "Idiocracy" all over again.
Because; your handle, along with your lack of candor, puts your question into the realm of arrogant intonation. That and having nothing of a creative nature in your own channel says to most, "I'm just a punk who puts down creative...creations in lue of an anarchistic pretense." Did the Mona Lisa performe a function? Did the Venus D'Milo performe a function?
In other words: it was actually a stupid "question" and should have been kept to yourself, not posted.
@ChaosPunksXe : point? the point is your parents failed to use condom! did yo not see the wonder or human capability, to imagine, create and end up successfully invented this little wonder machine, trust me it can be a model for the source of free electricity! moron don't know how to use the rotten liquid inside his coconut husk!
Miss what? If you mean, do the balls ever miss the funnels? This can happen, when the machine falls out of adjustment. But, with 8 catapults launching 160 balls a minute, I have no desire to chase after strays. So, it is made to be exceptionally reliable.
Point? Tsk. If only I'd realized that one was required, I might have offered it for your consideration. Perhaps you could provide one? At the moment, I'm fresh out!
@BLitwin I agree. What's the point of a painting? It serves no real purpose and has very little/no useful function.
The point is, it's neat. It demonstrates how the builder has a passion, skill, and understanding of mechanical devices. He took something conceptual and made it real.
Yet, if you need a reason, here are some:
1. The rhythmic sounds can put babies suffering from cholic to sleep.

@BLitwin >>>"…If only I'd realized that one was required,…"<<<
Perfect. I may be most overjoyed by the fact that (outside of all the learning that can be had from this beautiful construct) the Octapult is meant to be an expression of pure fun. We grown-ups forget how to just have fun, far too often.

Range is determined by two factors. The first is the force applied by the spring. The other is the angle at which the ball is released. As the release angle approaches horizontal, the resulting trajectory approaches the vertical. By fixing the release angle for a nominal trajectory (a parabolic curve), the spring force is then adjusted accordingly.
Mostly wood, yes. The balls, cam followers and the dome are plastic, and the motor drive components are metal, as are the cones and plumbing parts. -B
This reminds me of a water fountain that was in front of the Sands Hotel in Las Vegas. First would shoot water to the second fountain. The 2nd would shoot water to a 3rd and then to a 4th.
I heard about that, maybe six months after I made this piece. I tried making a connection with those folks, but never got a reply. Oh well. We could've made beautiful music!
First of all this is great work what you have done! You have all my respect and appreciation for your work. In fact I am making such an Animusic like sound machine called MarblePhone. Visit my profile to see a already working version of it. What has to be done next is the transport of the marbles back to the top which is a big challenge to build. More videos of the MarblePhone will follow.
Well, I don't think either will get the message across. Unconsented showing of video is worse than unconsented showing of genitalia in my opinion (and, let's be honest my opinion is universal), and possibly on the same level of inhumanity as rape and forced sex.
I suggest you stone him to death, slowly, with sharp-edged pebbles. Make it a public execution as well, like they have in Saudi Arabia, to spread the message of course.
Well - as a metalsmith - you've given me a lot of inspiration to continue to play with all of the gears and mechanisms that I've collected over the years... I like the work that I do, but... it doesn't "do" anything... (except enhance the perceived value of the wearer?) Your work is just ... wonderful! Thanks again for your inspiration! dHb
Again - I'm in awe! May I ask how you came to design and fabricate these wonderful works? You incorporate woodworking, metalsmithing and engineering genius... have you always worked in these areas?
Thanks so much for your kind praise. I've been a model maker since I was a kid, and am blessed with a peculiar gift for understanding how things work, just by looking at them. I've taught myself how to work with different materials, over the years, and love to explore things I've not tried - which gets me in plenty of trouble!
There's no subterfuge at work here. Yes, the rotating cam, in the middle, is driven by a gearmotor, from underneath. It provides the energy and timing control for every part of the machine. I don't know where the idea came from, that the balls power it. That would certainly be violation of understood principles. -B
or...the sound of an electric motor? This can not be some propetual motion device, as wood(like all materials) has friction, the friction makes some of the kinetic energy into heat, so say you dropped the balls and they reached 100cm, next time they would get to 99, then 97 and exponentially downward.
Once in a great while, a ball will bounce the wrong way, and get loose. There is a space under the dome, for which to extract errant balls, and a reload tube to put them back in circulation.
