[GBC] Bling Color Sorter

[Berthil]

This LEGO Great Ball Contraption sorts balls on color but not by a computer. This means humans have to do it. To achieve this a Powerfunctions servo motor and remote control is used. Every color has its own path down including non-orange and non-white. This machine is 100% made of LEGO parts including steel counterweights.

very nice!

I love how the carriers wiggle with every indexed rotation,  also highly satisfying to see them go down in a traain once a rail is full.
well done! 

how is the reliability?

Wow, what a beauty! I absolutly love it. Great work again.

Top notch design and build, thanks for sharing  Sir

[Berthil]

Thanks all!

@shadow_elenter Ball entry is very reliable. The hoses for the way down are very tight together and sensitive, I will try to optimize them further before taking it a full week to LEGO World Utrecht.

Wonderfull module!

The Bling Color Sorter is up on LEGO Ideas in the 'Voice Controlled' contest. Would be nice if I can make it voice controlled with a new intelligent brick from LEGO :)

But do you have to say it in a Dutch accent?
