Builders Challenge Rube Goldberg Machine (#35)

A Rube Goldberg Machine infused with 5 builders challenges to maximize epicness. I wanted to be really clear about the challenges for people who don't know what a BC is. Halfway through the domino bridge, I realized I wouldn't have time to build two domino towers, so I improvised and balanced the ruler over just one. This had 28 fails, including machine fails and challenge fails (mostly machine). Special thanks to my friend Neel Gandhi for helping film this.

Which one was the hardest?

[TheSprice17]

@JanTheChef frisbee

[JanTheChef]

@TheSprice17 2 questions. 1. How? 2. How many takes did you have to do to finally pass the frisbee toss?

[TheSprice17]

@JanTheChef sometimes the ping pong ball would miss the next track after it fell (thats why i eventually added blocks on the sides) and sometimes i my throw was a little off (if it was too far the the right all those blocks came crashing down). annnd letts see.. probably about 10 fails were due to the frisbee (sometimes my mistake, sometimes the machines mistake). still not bad at all.

@breseman "A Rube Goldberg machine is a deliberately over-engineered machine that performs a very simple task in a very complex fashion, usually including a chain reaction." Who says a person cannot be part of a machine? If you look at Rube Goldbergs original cartoons, many of his machines included people being acted upon by some force, causing them to react and continue the machine.

@TheSprice17 Okay. Cool. If the 1 to 5 star rating was here, I'd give it 5 stars!

[Stick2Men]

Awesome! You are really good at this, the path from blocks would have caused me so much grief.
