  1. After a hectic summer and fall I have finally found time to build again. I decided to start building a GBC loop, and this is the first module that I came up with. I was slightly inspired by akiyuky's , but the concept is different. I also created building instructions for this module, the only wrong part in LDD is that liftarms holding up the hoppers aren't in place. LDD was being difficult and wouldn't allow me to place the liftarms correctly (even though they fit perfectly on the real module). Anyway, without further ado, here is the video: After Christmas and the New Year I plan on creating more modules, so stay tuned!
  2. Nice job. Next time you should put all the modules in a loop, that way it is continuous.
  3. Akiyuky's ingenious designs never cease to amaze me.
  4. I know Phillip has an index of modules that have building instructions [LINK]. He also has another fairly large index of GBC modules built by different builders that could be useful for inspiration [LINK].
  5. Personally I prefer the detailed instructions, because in the event that I make a mistake I can easily go back and find out what I did wrong. I also do use a different building technique for the more detailed instructions, to make it less time consuming.
  6. Yesterday the price was indeed $0.54 - I myself bought some at that price. The store owner must have changed the price late last night/early this morning. It's sad because that was such a great price for brand new LEGO basketballs.
  7. Just wanted to let everyone know there is a bricklink store selling new LEGO basketballs at ~$0.54 USD each. They have over 1300 of them still available. It's be perfect, especially for buying in bulk. Hurry though, the sale ends on December 2nd. This is the best price for new GBC balls I've seen in awhile.

  8. Interesting mechanism. I hope you post a video to show how it works when you finish!
  9. Awesome job! It kinda reminds me of the 1949 Indian Silver Arrow.
  10. Very unique! You should make it so it cracks the egg as well, even though it would be pretty difficult.
  11. Very impressive! It sorta reminds me of one of akiyukys modules. By far your best module yet!
  12. There was some group that was trying to create a new pf element that would allow you to control your pf motors using bluetooth. Here is the only video I could find about it. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=srIiQAUYkbY
  13. Beads work good, my balls are from a Chinese checkers game. I hope to get some real GBC balls before I finish my next loop.
  14. Great GBC counter! Although since I don't have an Android I won't be able to download the app.
  15. Thanks for sharing! I just may have to get some of these on my next big bricklink order.
  16. I don't recall ever coming across a part like that... But I will look into it.
  17. Can't wait to see it! Good luck!
  18. Great modules! As LegoGBC said it is good to see another LEGO GBC builder.
  19. Thank you! I also find GBCs hypnotic. Yes all the mechanisms were designed by me, although the whole module was based off of . I agree about the music, I'm really not sure why I put music probably just out of habit. It has no other function, besides driving the two motors used for that one module. Thanks! Thanks! Thanks! No, actually they are the balls from my Chinese checkers game.
  20. Remember awhile back when I said I was making a GBC? Well here it is! I didn't work on it non-stop but built it little by little. Here is the video I made for it: Questions, comments, or constructive criticism is welcome!
  21. Hey, does anyone know how to add pictures to posts? I was going to add some but I couldn't figure out how.
