As always it's beautiful and works flawlessly, but I feel like this is one of his simplest designs yet. A genius like Akiyuky can probably put together a module like this before breakfast!

Not intended as a criticism - just interesting to see him going back to basics.

Imho, there is nothing basic here, even the idea itself is marvelous, the execution even more. I already tried the snake slide (30 steps) - yes it is simple but absolutely amazing!!! It's really cool to bend it as you like. I did simplify the supports though...

I wish more builders would go "back to basics" ;-)

Just watching those forks is quite mesmerizing. It looks very neat and clean as well.

Yes, the forks, the ball delivery wheel, and the snake slide are all lovely individually and fun to watch, and then putting them together in such a clean way is excellent. I don't think "clean" means "simple" and I certainly don't think "busy" equals "complex" so I don't see anything here to criticize. Well done!

Making something complicated seem simple is what mechanical genius is all about!
