Which Door Will The Ball Hit? | Joseph's Puzzle Machines

I challenge you to these six machine puzzles. Guess which door the ball will go through by imagining how the machine will run. I bet no one can get all six correct!

JOSEPH'S MACHINES solve everyday problems using familiar objects in unfamiliar ways. He creates them in his apartment in Brooklyn, New York.

Thank you all the Patrons who helped me test the videos.
Also a huge thank you to the following friends who gave terrific feedback to help me develop the puzzles:
Miranda Siegel, Jacob Dixon, Hamish Bartle, Mike Berlin, Adam Zmith, Mike Neal, Diego Palma, Camille Moreno and Gus Goldsack.

The appliance puzzle was very unexpected. I felt the way the wine bottle approached the blender was a bit weird but saw no feasible way in which the toaster or water boiler could get turned on

[@Dzdzovnica]

i thought bottle is a trap and miscalculated cacti so the orange ball will hit little hammer in a way it activates the kettle. Imagine my surprise when it actually was kettle and the ball just rolled of the toasts 🤣

I thought it would be the water boiler . . . but somehow I Completely misjudged HOW that would happen, and I thought the wine bottle etc. to be superfulous just to confuse me XD

This video is so useful! Each part has a pause so you get to see the entire machine, and because they all fit in the frame and since the parts used arent as obscure and hard to find like other videos (DIY metal marble tracks are a bit out of my area of experience for now) these videos are just really simple to copy which is exactly what i need! Ive been looking for simple machines to copy like this It seems ironic, like this is supposedly a tiktok-formula type vid but its actually just really informative and easy to copy, which has been my whole barrier! Im still working with dominoes but hopefully by the end of this ill be a bit more cool haha Need more vids like this, the best vids ive found so far discuss the big abstract concepts ("Mechanisms"? Its not like its an easy field to research, most content on rube goldberg is targeted at kids so there arent many recent tutorials besides videogame stuff) pulleys, inclined planes, releases, marbles, dominoes
