Top 10 Amazing LEGO Great Ball Contraption Modules (Akiyuki)

[@jamesna7892]

call me crazy, but there were a few more than ten...

[@TexturaI]

its 55 mins lol

[@JanoyCresvaZero]

There’s ones that say, “top 10 star wars builds!” And it’s longer than most Star Wars movies… 🤔

[@idonnu7624]

Imma call you a genius instead

[@SomeRustyNuts]

You’re crazy only 10

[@TheLimepatch]

Pretty sure I only counted ten

[@arthurmerkel1615]

4:15 now this is a very advanced and unique mechanism, I like that one the most from a technical perspective

[@Kids_Scissors]

That and they're so silly looking. I love them

[@mevrix3365]

This is incredible how creative some people could be! My most creative project was a wired remote control car that was able to go forwards, turn left and right. But if you didn't stop the motor in time while turning, it would start cracking and eventually fall apart.

[@alextheferret5674]

Akiyuki's work is amazing, and the best part is that he posts his instructions for free.

[@shiiroo_0831]

I'm so happy that you enjoyed my LEGO Technic build! I put a lot of love into it, and I'm glad that you could appreciate it.

[@hunterneitzel3012]

6:49. This gave me an idea on how to make a realistic signaling system for a Lego train layout, where the train will automatically stop at stations and for red signals, to allow another train to pass. The light sensor on the train with pick up a tile on the ground, which will tell it to either stop, or keep going.

[@toddkes5890]

So you're trying to make real-life Factorio? ;)

[@speedtoast]

The arm has just got so much personality and character in its operation. Amazing models!

[@alaeriia01]

The color sorter would be cool to feed two lanes of GBC modules, maybe using Extended Peanuts to cross over at one point, before they both dump into a large-capacity module such as the Balldozer or the Gaussian Distribution module.

[@Living_Murphys_Law]

Or to feed to the two clapping robots.

[@JJsMuvieHole]

Wow... very impressive! I'm almost more impressed by the ability to come up with the idea more than making it work!

[@stressballer]

Akiyuki is a genius and an artist.

[@collinrogers4742]

An absolute Mechanical mastermind

[@JackMacLupus]

I just wanted to write the same! XD This guy is truly a mastermind.

[@Living_Murphys_Law]

Truer words have never been said.

[@seekoutguy]

My favorite is the spinny dudes, because they're basically mechanical switches

[@The_Releveler]

much respect on the engage/disengage mechanism at 5:00. Took me 2 viewings to reverse engineer how it worked.

[@KWHCoaster]

Nice, really like the one at 6m50s especially when configured with the larger loop so it can feed itself and run continuously.

[@salehuddinmuttalib6027]

?

[@83btm]

@@salehuddinmuttalib6027 Is there confusion? There are 2 different track set-ups/configurations for the 4 railcar robots. The first configuration cannot run continuously. The second one can, because the drop-off point is connected to the star wheel mechanism via a downhill ramp. Hope this helps.

[@Jimmysage3273]

[@peppidesu]

12:00 the yellow cart is being bullied, somebody help him!

[@greenbean325]

Hey!!! Build the school security cart

[@jacobstory8895]

Akiyuki is a master of making mechanical marvels.

[@fidogyrenuzanon2335]

I like how many of the ones that made this list utilize other smaller GBC modules within their builds. Also, could anyone else imagine a theme park where these are what inspired some of the rides?

[@claytondora]

12:08 the green trash can is so aggressive

[@wyattmcmullen7402]

Top ten lego ball things I want in my home (Dude you could line them up one attached to the other and have the ultimate ball things)

[@danzirulez]

The clapping ETs are far the best I have ever seen :)) Very cute

[@christoffermedc]

wow this is just amazing, I could fall asleep to the sound of the machines churning, so beautiful!

[@gingervikingjesus2351]

@12:47 Bruh... THAT thing had to an engineering *NIGHTMARE!!!!* 😮

[@benj5583]

21:00 OMG THATS AWESOME!! i always wanted to see them go through sorted, but so many machine shuffle and mix, and they dont start ordered, but its so awesome!

[@Kids_Scissors]

It's crazy how fast it reads the colors

[@lostmic]

At 38s the robot seems really happy to do its job and the satisfaction is watching the little balls go down the stairs for him! :D

[@thatelephant]

Just the satisfaction of these mechanics and designs puts a big smile on my face. It's beautiful! Just listening and watching the balls find their way through your machine and ends in a box. What will your next idea be, a car builder? 🚗 🔧

[@christoffermedc]

3:47 what an amazing contraption, I'd love to see the thoughts and iterations behind the creation, how does the dampening contribute for example! OH! And 5:00 is the robots triggered by digital relays or is it entirely mechanical?

[@dairyqueenflashmob]

The robots are entirely mechanical!

[@sinteleon]

It's probably triggered by the 'arms' causing a gear to be caught if it doesn't manage to fully close, thus making the contraption lift and spin around.

[@ZeacorZeppelin]

The one after the thumb nail really blew my my mind. I got to get to bed though.

[@blackholetree]

Same

[@laurendoggett1022]

Cool thanks for making this Lego dream happen thank you for making this video for all of us

[@brothaMan84]

Would love to see all of these interconnected!

[@Clumaex]

I always wanted to build contraptions like that, but never had enough lego to create more than one machine. This here is awesome!

[@fullpower8382]

Wow! Thanks for that impressions!! Very nice projects!!

[@SpawnofChaos]

Put that auto sorter just before the purple coaster track thing at its full potential and it’d be *amazing* 😳

[@boriskotov1846]

Это божественно!)) Like a God!))

[@MaydayChild]

LEGO jest mistrzem w przerzucaniu kulek :)

[@prooq158]

Dazu kann ich nur sagen: This can be considered as awesome.

[@dylandepetro4187]

Can we all take a moment to appreciate just how many hours it must have taken just to put all this together. Not to mention all the troubleshooting.

[@woodennecktie]

great build , but what is coming out , the problem of lag , the time the initial drive comes to the very end of the machine is off sync is handled in a proper way after ............ a lot of building and rebuilding , great build

[@RobinHoodBricks]

Simply amazing!

[@lolcaio]

incredible!!! change of direction and move the mechanisms using the powertrain, for that !!! !!! 48:50

[@sunnyfin7134]

ミニチュア自動化システムは非常に実用的で興味深い

[@nennie86]

My 6yr old is obsessed with these. Dose anyone know how to get any sort of instructions for any? We could probably figure it out but it would be helpful. Thanks all.

[@itsaboutchina732]

I think next you need to make a lego version of the Wintergan marble music machine

[@Living_Murphys_Law]

WHOO HOO! One full hour of satisfication!! Edit: And I just saw that the next video is an hour and a half of GBC's!!! But seriously, things like these are always amazing. I still am trying to figure out how that yellow-and-red robots one works.

[@logo115]

I think when the arms can’t move, the robot has to spin around but idk

[@Living_Murphys_Law]

@@logo115 Yes, that's it, but it's the detection. Although I might have gotten that, too.

[@massimobottaini7388]

AMAZING !!!!you are a wizard and a genius,

[@shadowshinigamidragon9924]

The one with the mine carts remind me of a toy I had where this one moterized car went from bulldozer to dump truck and it just went around the track moving small plastic rocks in a loop

[@christoffermedc]

Each of these constructions deserves a short video describing inspiration and design thoughts :D

[@RCmies]

Ok 4:00 is just 500 IQ mechanism... It's almost like mechanical logic circuit controlling those ''bots''.

[@amwoodworking1406]

Nice video

[@dancraftyt3115]

Hablas español tío ?

[@MrVDG-nk1xx]

I always like to watch such videos. Wow!!!

[@dancraftyt3115]

Que padre quedo y cuanto tiempo costo

[@7gpanda744]

really nice to look at :)

[@metalwellington]

I think the last one is actually the most insane.

[@axeldiesterweg]

lovely and genius !!!!

[@CrunchyMush]

PLEASE tell me somebody put all of these together into a single loop!

[@ashley_engle]

So absolutely brilliant 🥰💕

[@Nate-wf5hk]

This is art.

[@Fireheart318]

The one at 20:15 is the best imo

[@TechnoTailsOriginal]

I like that train in gold version

[@msx80]

I feel like this should be on akiyuki channel

[@Chauzuvoy]

Man, I liked these even better on Akiyuki's own channel!

[@megamanx466]

Very cool contraptions! 😄

[@anjaihns2851]

❤

[@belinda68]

Wonderfull as usual

[@milankucera7365]

Wau, totally amazing 👍

[@BerthilvanBeek]

The best one is missing: Ball Factory

[@alextheferret5674]

Y E S

[@shurovik2987]

The one who did it... He/she was really crazy.... Or really genious....

[@HateSonneillon]

This says 10 but there were so many cool parts to each one that it felt like 50.

[@jamesplayz450]

4:00 that one was funny Af

[@mariovelez578]

I think that's more than 10 👍

[@catman2261]

The very first one was the robot version of "it ain't much, but its honest work"

[@oliverfiedler8502]

As i wrote some years ago: i'm not very impressed. I have seen machines of this Perfection and Beauty before I guess the Name was Leonardo da Vinci... Thanks for sharing these with us not so heavenly gifted

[@legoguysoff]

Great !

[@JF9]

I mean, cool, but what about the rotary engine? That was fire.

[@Kittyderp]

I like the on at 3:50

[@rupamanjaribehera255]

I liked second last one

[@rupamanjaribehera255]

47:59

[@NinjaboyAdam56345]

This is cool

[@tahircorbin2203]

How amazing

[@7gpanda744]

like a factory :)

[@legosadsad237]

perfect

[@MahfuzurRahman-oy6hs]

I want to buy these ,where I can find them and the instructions

[@ST-RTheProtogen]

21:41 has to be my favorite

[@thaziltds4154]

Am​just watching this comment and​see THE​ second is​ same time lol

[@thisnewnamesystemisdumb]

Legos have come a long way...

[@christoffermedc]

Anyone else who find the sound of machinery beautiful and would like to share me any other video with pretty sounds? :3

[@Lipi19821]

Now connect them all together, so they all work in a loop

[@cassandrabirdsall5345]

Who ever made the bird one is a f*cking genius and i kinda hate them for it cause that is terrifying Edit: that yellow train kinda looked like it was being bullyied when the others were making it move. Funniest crap ive seen today

[@2wo5ifty6ix.]

3:50 Pov: you're playing some sort of idle ball simulator

[@springpondnc]

What robot made these robots?!?

[@batman3698]

1:15 lego basketball type beat

[@ChrstphreCampbell]

I suppose that it’s only a matter of ”How Long” before someone makes a Lego Contraption that emulates a human brain ?

[@sylvianeschoeb3794]

Génial

[@robbiesmith79]

12: 30 straight out of Wall-E

[@Hugh.Manatee]

What is controlling the carts at 11:00? Looks like a Boost block in the loading station, but the carts themselves are too small for any logic brick I know of.

[@hutao1017]

it looks like a hub 88009

[@senbatifanola]

20:50 yes a classifier

[@papa_kernels4816]

Who else subbed just for the gbc?

[@PlanetGBC]

me, of course 😀

[@YoHasLEGO]

Akijuki has a channel of his own, you should check that out too!

[@Dilly958]

Nice (;

[@mems1895]

I didn’t Evan know you can do this with lego

[@hadimnadim8678]

fabrikada uygulanması gereken sisisten gibi hesaplamalar tam yerinde

[@feynthefallen]

Great Ball Contraption? What Great Ball Contraption? Oh THOSE amateurs...

[@NoaKronor]

now connect them all

[@РоманКондрашкин-ж3ы]

3:25...Можно перевести в двоичный код и...наверное получится какая-то мелодия!? Или сообщение от Бога!)))
