Falling Domino Machine

An art sculpture where the dominos fall, get set back up with a motorized mechanical arm, then fall again. It's a found object sculpture, so it's made with everyday objects. I used a 5 gallon bucket for the base, PVC and aluminum pipe and a spatula for the arm, a bike rim for the dominos to attach to, and K'nex toy gears for the gears.

Nifty. I wonder if it would be much more difficult to make the arm fast enough that the dominos never stop falling.
