[@DrakeAng]

Disclaimer: I loved this video, and this concept. I am writing this as constructive criticism coming from an engineering perspective. While my preferred medium is Legos, I am familiar with K'Nex. I offer these thoughts only for your consideration, and not as an attack on you, your team, or your design. In other words, I want to offer these ideas in the hope to help make a better version if you make another tower like this in the future and want to keep it. I suggest using guy-ropes to stabilize it. At least 4, preferably a set of 4 every 10 feet. Also, you might want to reinforce the lower 1/4 of the tower as the weight and strain on those pieces would cause stress fractures eventually, and this would cause the whole tower to wobble more. Additional ropes at every 2' for the first 10' could help. The base of the structure could also be enlarged to distribute the weight more, making the tower more stable and durable. I'm curious as to whether there were shelves, ramps, or other impediments on the interior of the tower, or were the dice free-falling? By installing slanted shelves to break up the free-fall and reduce the die's speed, you would have a safer and more secure drop, but it would be slower. Every 3-4 feet would probably be enough. The more you have, the more the die will slow down, but the less impact the die suffers overall. For the sake of the dice, avoid longer unrestrained falls where acceleration due to gravity is allowed to build. Additionally, I would suggest a funnel or similar structure near the bottom that directs the die onto the ramp and does not allow it to escape the tract, thus preventing the issue shown with dice occasionally getting stuck at the end. As for the chain issue, I am concerned that the bucket and arm are too heavy for that chain. If there were a cup, funnel or other structure at the top to catch the die as it rolls out of the bucket, you could shorten the arm and make the bucket smaller. Also, make sure that the hinge rotates smoothly for collapse.

[@OneShotArQhive]

This is absolutely amazing, where were you when we were building it haha!! Also yes there were shelves/ ramps. You can see them when the dice tower breaks or watching the dice go down the tower :)

[@KasaiRayquaza]

Might need to play a bit more warforged/artificer bud.. the engineering there is a bit shakey. But, for the future WR videos, have a baseline set of guidelines to define the WR. Think speedrunning as an example, because a wind turbine could be a tower if you think about it. So having a set of definitions is key.
