Lego Great Ball Contraption: Extended Peanuts

The sheer beauty of perfect mechanical synchronization. The modularity of the whole system is superb.

Theoretically, you could to a total of four systems, using 90-degree offsets. Maybe more, but I think it would get really janky at that point. What would be really cool though, would be if you could get it to change channels, i.e. a marble goes around the track twice.

[@legomasterbuilder9118]

It’s crazy how much you can customize it! You did a really good job with this contraption. I’m so impressed by your skills. Keep up the great work !

[@antipastamony]

Nice! You should feed this with the color sorter. It’s a module that wouldn’t just mix the colors again as soon as they’re sorted.

[@rolfvanrijckevorsel]

Thats also what I had in mind.

[@alaeriia01]

So a color sorter capable of handling two BPS, feeds into this, which could feed two separate sets of modules, merging at the end via something like the balldozer?

[@diatomsaus]

What's the fail rate of those? I've seen them fail.

The modularity is impressive! EDIT: Also, the speed! So much precision to get it right every cycle...

Awesome, you should design some kind of x axis pivot system on the center rotator that allows you to make it go up and down so you can do multiple tiers.

Amazing!!

[@emorag]

[@keithstransitexperiences9749]

Those systems have a good concept for a new ride at an amusement park. The passengers will sit in one of many cars being pushed up onto the track, then going through all the turns several times, and then the ride is over when the passengers will be pushed back down to the station. The smaller system would be a good start, then it should be worked to add the bigger layouts in the future.

[@keithstransitexperiences9749]

Btw, I think I saw you doing some sort of "retracking" to make a bigger version with the goal. The first version is just like the small orange track, the second version is the purple continuous track, and the third version uses both tracks having a goal that the machine on the finish to move you back to the station The next modification, which is the fourth version uses two lifts and a goal, so when the ride reaches the goal, it would have a machine on that track to move you back to the station. The fifth version has no goals, but the track goes back to the station. The sixth and last version uses a spiral chain lift, and has a little smaller layout with the goal, which the cars will be moved back to the station. If those rides made it to amusement parks and due to laws that those rides need modifications causing the ride to close unexpectedly, and nothing works or there is no work because the park doesn't know what to do, they could: 1) Start from scratch after taking down the track 2) Retrack the ride completely after taking the ride apart, using another concept generation or at least doing the bare minimum or, 3) Relocate the ride to where it won't have strict laws.

[@necrozmaggron5840]

[@ozziew1z743]

[@pauldeddens5349]

On an an actual GBC, you could use this as a bit of an X crossing. The first pass takes it through with the ball hopper ramp dropping it onto another GBC stage. And then later on many stages later it places the balls back into this, but on the second portion that continues to drop balls on the next GBC stage.

[@lucavogels]

In IT that’s called Multiplexing 🤓 Well done!

[@agentember2143]

If the double loop one was gbc 1) It obviously wouldn't be a loop 2) You could tie it into the ball sorter and make it to where the different colored carts only carry a certain type of ball.

[@PandemoniumMeltDown]

[@MigunoOS]

Now you need to make it so if a ball doesn’t get picked up at the end, the dropper won’t add another ball

[@samschellhase8831]

so i'm most interested in the ball elevator module, how do you make the balls go up without falling down on every rotation? I can see a bar circulating underneath, I can see that it pushes a piston upwards, do you use a rubber band and a lever of sorts to keep the ball in place until the next one pops up underneath it?

[@datengineer2174]

It is a shame that those dials used to control the speed don’t have a technic pin slot so you can hook two of them up with a technic beam to be perfectly synced allowing for a smoother altering of speed.

[@RenegadeScooter]

I think the second-to-last configuration would be even better if it were rearranged into one continuous loop.
