The passive cams are brilliant. Love the complex motion simply mechanized.

[@yoctometric]

Very interesting way to pass the carts around! The syncing of the arms is beautiful

[@justsomeguy5628]

This may be the coolest GBC module I've ever seen!

[@HoshikawaHikari]

Look through this amazing guy's channel first before saying that

[@jorritspek6566]

Just Some Guy so it will be 😂

[@timehunter9467]

It reminds me of a bottling production line! Brilliant design. You’re the best!

[@japiekr3k3l]

I love the way you do a building process video and a review on the module video.

[@BlockHeadUK]

I'm lost for words! Astonishing precision engineering! 😍😍😍

[@sawyerklegr]

This is such a great idea! I am always amazed how well and reliably your modules work.

[@Tech_Marauder]

I didn’t think this was that amazing until you slowed down the footage... it’s so precise and complex, absolutely amazing as always.

[@bluefirexde]

Your video quality has greatly improved lately. Now we've got incredible machines in glorious quality and some better explanations. Love it!

[@OhSnapBricks]

Another great one! I'm excited to see these start popping up in layouts around the world.

[@SnowTerebi]

Looks like you are having fun with new tracks!

[@grohl666]

How can anyone dislike such a technical marvel?

[@dinhtuan752]

I think watch my LEGO gears for dummies video.

[@wintermutevsneuromancer8299]

this channel is awesone!!

[@Marcury84]

When I see new and interesting LEGO elements, I am always curious as to how Akiyuki will incorporate them into GBC modules

[@legomasterbuilder9118]

I am always amazed at your creativity. This one is very awesome, I love all the motion that is happening. Great work!

[@freazywarr]

I'm amazed at how fast it is.

[@PandemoniumMeltDown]

The video realisation is very good!

[@HorcikDesigns]

Just wow. Really nice. Thank you for making the "making of" video, it is really interesting to see how your GBC module develops from scratch. This module would deserve some more rigid supports, because it looks slightly weird when it goes on i's max speed and the structure is wobbling. ;)

[@thevoid6308]

This is awesome! Well done!

[@legofreak5769]

i love this so much. I just got a bunch of turntables that i didnt know what to do with but now i do!

[@ViehDEO]

Looks like a little factory. Great job!

[@Xiaomila]

Beautiful I would love to have this on my desk running all day and keeping me from concentrating on the important things :)

[@gbcandre9535]

OMG, what an amazing build 👍🏻👍🏻

[@geza96]

Thanks for sharing your creations

[@RennovaMOCs]

Oh, I get it. You named it after the shape of the tracks.

[@xplodingmojo2087]

Actual genius

[@th3d3adr0b0t]

That thing is so satisfying and so precise you should take it to a Lego fair

[@whistlehead9876]

This looks strangely simple at a glance, until you look closer and see all the insane mechanical intricacies

[@legomocspassion]

Nice gbc 🤩🤩🤩

[@d0iu]

Clockwork masterpiece!

[@numode]

And he's done it again !

[@calar8]

Synchronizing this must've been a nightmare 0_o

[@doctormario1075]

So cool. As others have said, this is very much like assembly line engineering. For all I know, that might be your real job. ;] Excellent build, though.

[@JamesKaret]

gosh, that's so awesome.

[@BerthilvanBeek]

Excellent!

[@tau93]

This is great! You should make another version called snow peas where there are additional middle squiggles that make the loader and unloader farther apart from each other. There would be an additional arm in the middle that moves the carts forward but doesn't touch the ball

[@SingleTruckShayStudios]

I like how you use the roller coaster system

[@Qwertworks]

amazing!

[@Messier-gq9yl]

I truly want your crazy Lego mind 😂

[@eliaspeter7689]

WOW! Just how do you come up with an idea like that! GREAT JOB!

[@ppooooll]

Cool

[@3NAS_N1]

Nice design! I wonder if one could make it with twice as many carts by letting each turntable have two sides where they can hold a cart. The insertion part must have a switch to pop out a ball on one side and then on the other and the output part jsut needs to be copied. This doesnt seem too difficult to me, but i dont think i have all the necessary parts to test it.

[@mahj]

Great concept. I'm looking forward to seeing this live, copied by less talented GBC builders.

[@9m6mfaw]

すごいなあ

[@Buy-n-large]

how do you keep these running smoothly? have you experimented with graphite/grease?

[@BerthilvanBeek]

Akiyuki himself says the module should run with lubrication on his webste, from experience with these machines I can say teflon (PTFE) works the best.

[@13oz18]

i can imagine that on a rick and morty episode where the balls are humans and the robots manufacture them. right?

[@Rokreder]

Watching this was a dizzying experience. Great concept though!

[@GJBricks]

That is tremendous! So fast! Have you had any problem with friction or something catching/being slow to pickup? Looks stunning!

[@GreatBallPit]

Jelly module next please. 🥜🍓🥪

[@plastichymn]

Impressive, it kinda looks like Opus Magnum by Zachtronics

[@pacha1500]

Ło kurwa akijuki coś ty odjebał szacuneczek gościu ale szybko śmiga nie no lodzio miodzio

[@nullnull2396]

Is that a machine

[@shawnm355]

i might build myself one. i want a liveing room gbc on display

[@God-CDXX]

i am in my lego room building this now

[@burnek2799]

it looks like a factory

[@1_1bman]

wouldn't this work if the motor went backwards too?

[@BerthilvanBeek]

No, it would jam on the ball pump pusher, it needs to be pushed up from the bottom. If reversed it would just try to push it deeper down which isn't possible..

[@Anonymous-bk9xy]

Where did you get the rails from, unikitty?

[@dinhtuan752]

yes

[@capsule3973]

Behold ! THIS IS JAPAN !

[@alexharkler]

Is it possible to have two sides to each arm so there are 4 carts spinning around?

[@epleprekahn4238]

Adding a second set of cars wouldn't be too difficult, but only one pair would be able to feed balls. The other two cars would just be empty. Although I could see setting up a second in box and out ramp on the side pass arms. That could work. Though the pass arms would have less time to make the pickup.

[@alexharkler]

@@epleprekahn4238 If there were a consistent way to separate the balls at the top of the pump it might be possible. The pump would have to work 2x as fast though. The main axles and gears would also have to work under 2x the load.

[@epleprekahn4238]

There are four arms that move the carts. Two of those arms are just passing the carts on. I was thinking put a second in ramp on the first passer bar and a second picker on the second passer bar. That way you could have a pair of red carts that are loaded/unloaded on the outside of the nut, and a pair of blue carts loading/unloading on the inside.

[@alexharkler]

@@epleprekahn4238 Unfortunately, the loader and unloader do appear to take at least 180° to function properly, so idk if they would work on the shorter 90° corners.

[@gearhorse]

Always love your builds, but man looking at this run fast gives me a headache...

And now for it to be “borrowed” by every gbc enthusiast

[@thingsofsuch]

It looks like it is about to fail. That would make for an interesting video. This ... does not in this form.
