Combee Posted July 3, 2014 (edited) Hello Eurobricks, I'd like to present you with a collaborative build that I made with BrickJunky for Brickworld Chicago. The idea was to present our interpretation of a themed GBC (Great Ball Contraption), though this build does not follow the established standards for a GBC. For those unfamiliar, a Great Ball Contraption is essentially a machine that moves balls from one place to another in creative ways. We were incredibly honored to be nominated for Best Mechanical build at Brickworld and I'd like to thank everyone who came up and talked to us at the event. It was my first Brickworld and I was blown away by the support from everybody! In particular I'd like to thank Steve Hassenplug and everyone from the GBC section for their help and support and we look forward to incorporating a similar build into the actual GBC layout! Be sure to watch the video! Enjoy! Edited July 5, 2014 by Combee Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

rollermonkey Posted July 4, 2014 At first glance, I thought "what a cheesy little boardwalk amusement park... why does the roller coaster look like it's unfinished?" Then I read the text. Then I watched the video. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
