i had something like that when i was a kid yet it was all out if plastic
-
I have always found it a little disturbing that amish people consider bicycles fundamentally different from pocket watches. At what number of gears or springs does an object go from being a tool to being a sinful luxury.

fuck that, i'd rather play xbox.

since when do amish has computers and youtube accounts?
-
I mean, it's ok, but I wouldn't call it amazing. I'd be proud of it if I made it, but other than that I don't think it's anything spectacular.

@meinefresse94 sorry, i don't live close to this thing at all, you'll just have to squint :O
from what I remember, the release was just two bent metal rods that were attached to the wooden balance beam—the one that catches the marbles as they fall—one attached to each side of the nail you see. the beam pushes each rod up just enough that it lets the next marble though (and stops the next one).

@bRadicalmagic1 i dunno, go ask em br0
seriously though, marbles are glass, and glass-blowing is really old technology. i wouldn't be surprised if that was one of the things the amish were allowed to use

who knows... if a kid plays with this, he might grow up to work for NASA.
...well, ok, maybe not if he's Amish, but still.
