Looks cool, but in the grand scheme of things it feels like this record could be broken by anyone by the time it takes lego to ship parts to their house

[@jsut94]

Lol. The same could be said for so many records. Obviously the difference here is that he actually took the time to do it. I don't think there's a world record for trolling comments though... 🤔

[@BrickMachinesChannel]

I'm glad you think it looks cool! Although I understand what you're saying, this record is not only related to the number of links, but that the chain runs continuously yet in 3 separate planes, all having to be achieved through 90-degree twists of the chain. It's a challenge of engineering, but also of making a beautiful and satisfying end product, not just of setting a record. I hope this helps make the project more exciting to you!

[@-CookieDev-]

arent the links sold individually though?

[@petermuller608]

LEGO 3D Art is a great idea. There are instructions on the net on how to make 3D-ASCII Art so the same rules would work with different colored bricks.

Thanks so much! It takes almost 3 minutes at the slow speed, and maybe 40 seconds or so at the fastest speed

[@NewBrick68]

It makes me so happy seeing people who are really passionate with lego, and actually post videos frequently ❤

[@thatoneguywhoknittedthejim2912]

I saw a similar concept with a tracked technic vehicle (using the same type of tracks from 8043) that had one massive loop of track that crossed over on the top to make two parallel sections of tracks to drive on.

[@BrickMachinesChannel]

Woah, I love that idea! Very cool!

I made my own LEGO film projector as a mid-teen. I used strips of notebook paper as my film and as many Light Bricks as I had for the projector bulb. I had no idea about the sprocket system on a real projector so it didn't actually work correct. But I do now (Thanks @TechnolgyConnections ).

For the next iteration, have the hub count the links as they pass by for even more impressive numbers! 😃

God I wish I knew about lego tutorials like this when I was a kid. My inspiration would've gone through the stratosphere. Nowadays, my old lego collection is unfortunately gone. So many memories.

[@billkeithchannel]

I still have all mine but the pieces are so primitive compared to what is available now. I stopped collecting in 1983 when Technic bricks were still called Expert Builder in the USA. I have pieces and printed materials from when LEGO was distributed by The Samsonite Corporation before InterLego was a thing.

[@CosmicAggressor]

I can't help but feel that you are doing exactly 1 more chain than the previus record.

[@BrickMachinesChannel]

😂 That would've been funny for sure, but that's just all the chain links I had haha. I'm not sure anybody's ever set the record before, so this is just setting the stage for someone to beat it 👍

[@TheDJAxels]

with the right spacing, some labels, and the right gear ratio, you could make a clock like this.

Add a gear on some kind of mechanism so you can add a spring to it to tension the entire chain. Currently its quite loose as seen by some gears just not even having the chain on it constantly.
