Quick and dirty 42055 GBC module

Recommended Posts

I had to disassemble the BWE and before I laid the parts to rest for a while, I create a quick GBC module. It's based on the Particle Accelerator MOCs and uses a wheel to propel a ball up a curved ramp. Since the wheel imparts a lot of backspin on the ball, it sometimes doesn't reach the end of the main track and instead reverses onto a side track exit mechanism. For funsies, I just connected the exit track back to the main track but I could just as well connect it to a different module. That way each ball could go for a couple rides before exiting to the next module.

Badly lighted video here:

That is sure to leave some serious damage to the balls at the end of a one or two day display. Hitting the banana gears at high speed will definitely leave some dents on the balls.

Awesome! I love GBC.. never built anything, but one of my 2018 goals is to start. I've sooo much to learn, but i can't wait!

Never built anything GBC i meant, many years of technic, so hopefully the skills are transferable!
