    Ball factory update: I finally was able to update the spiral lift and hopper of my ball factory build to be more accurate to Akiyukis version. The way the balls roll into the lift is a lot better and is based off the step v2 spiral. So far it can hold a lot of balls without jamming.

    im also preffer to support gobricks now, esp after all the stuff ups from lego, gobricks has been great, not sure why RB is so against them, is there another site like RB that fully supports gobricks? if so i would love to move my gbc stuff over there, i also canceled my designer plan some months ago and i wish i could get a refund for all the months i supported this site.

    greetings all, i have been absent from here for a while but i have some unfinished business with some of the modules in the project, the stepv2 have been a module that has been sitting in my gbc room for some years waiting to be rebuilt to an updated version, well that time has come, @Ankokusent me a the file for his updated version some years ago and its time to make some new instructions to replace the version currently on the first page. many changes have been done, the spiral lift being one of the biggest as it was totaly wrong. Andy bell is currently testing the build as we speak so i will post the instructions here when finished. i have to say, it runs flawlessly now with no major issues, this one have been on my to do list for many years. heres a photo of my build. also on my to do list is do this updated version of the marble run, its one of the only modules i have not displayed and would like to add this to the front page, would anyone be up for doing the file? im happy to order the parts and test build it https://blog-imgs-56.fc2.com/l/e/g/legokarakuri/CIMG1859b.jpg

    could it be due to a lack of grease on the shaft on the 6l pumps? some silicon spray would help if this is the case

    thanks, it all comes apart into each module, then you just restack it all when you set it up again

    nice to see more people building this monster of a module, i just completed my tower 2 build which took 2 years. how reliable is the pole dancing quartet module?
  8. 9v system
    yes im curently having the same issue, i wanted to get some stuff for my new brickowl account but cant even log in im so angry right now
  9. 9v system
    im also in the same boat, they removed 4 of my GBC mocs despite having permission from the designers to post the instructions, im also ready to cancel my plan and say bye, also hate the fact they hate brands like Webrick who are great and i have used many times.

    if you use the timing set up from the v2 instructions the thin eclipse piece that lifts the bucket placer is turned 90 degrees forward i think which then allows all the parts to come into the bucket wheel at the same time, then you can remove the extra bucket once timed
  11. 9v system
    looking good, i see you added the extra stud gap at the spiral lift like i did with mine, its a fairly reliable module once set. did you do the timing change for the bucket placer?
  12. 9v system
    looking good so far @Fyredog when you get to the bucket placer there is a timing error the part that lifts the placer is 90 degrees out i think the way its shown in the V2 instructions is correct and then allows for the removal of one of the buckets as everything can be timed with a larger margin for error.

    i used the 3 drive points from the original version the bucket tower has about 30 pass points so putting the drives every 10 buckets works quite well, you may need to gear it down abit but i can hand crank the whole tower and the 5 modules which are also connected to the same drive very easily
  14. 9v system
    for the backlash issue on the gbc tower, i ran a common drive axle all the way up the length of the tower. this ensured that all the buckets were powered from the same drive and also keeps backlash to a minimum, like @Jude The Lego Dude has already said this is the best solution as if you go any higher than the 8 buckets the backlash gets really bad. i can reactivate that 4 bucket tower page if needed.
  15. 9v system
    @Ankoku did you notice that the drive shaft feeding into the bucket dumper gearing is at a slight angle upwards? if this is true then the bucket dumper gearing must be one plate higher meaning that the dumper will stay open for a bit longer when the shifter is moving across.

    been a while since i was last here, great to see you still making more modules, i was wondering if you had instructions for the roller coaster module?
  17. 9v system
    im also interested in the file, having taking a break from GBC to fix cassette decks im eager to get back into it
  18. 9v system
    looks like im late to this but heres my answers for some of your questions. i used a small airbrush compressor for mine. same as @HRU_Bricks i ordered my pneumatic hoses and ev3 cables of aliexpress as you can get them in 1m lengths for the cables and 10m rolls for the hose. i would connect the pneumatic stuff as you build each part. you will have trouble getting the hoses on if you leave it to the end. i took the pressure regulator off my build as it isnt really needed same with distribution block.
  19. 9v system
    yes i believe so
  20. 9v system
    nice work @Fyredog, the gear that turns the whole module arround is wrong in the instructions, it should be a 16 tooth gear not a 12, i made a file with the correct changes
  21. 9v system
    i have uploaded the part list to rebrickable, that one should work when exporting to BL
  22. 9v system
    hi all, its a bit late but i wanted to post the gbc layout we had at brickvention this year, i had a large section of Akiyuki and @Berthil modules on display, most of the modules run ok, i had to pull out tilted rotors and turntable cup to cup. @Jude The Lego Dude also brought a few of my old Akiyuki modules i sold to him. for this year im currently building the gbc tower by @diegobaca
  23. 9v system
    how much are you selling it for? and could you send me some photos? thanks
  24. 9v system
    i will take a look at this tomorrow and see what the issue is,i know BL has changed the part id's of some pieces and the white clutch gear is one of them
  25. 9v system
    super interested in the instructions for this one, i wanted to do this as well, your version is excellent
