BRO I literally went crazy when he showed the rubber band strategy for decreasing axel stress with quick and sudden rotation… blew my mind - would not in a million years have thought of that perfect solution!
Thank you! That mechanism while so simple, was one of the biggest parts of getting this machine working especially with having a single motor drive all 5 wheels
Crazy to think how this guy probably also goes online and sees lego stuff and is like "that's insane, I could never", which is what I said immediately when I saw this video. It's just interesting to think about how much possible difference in skill there can be.
This is a very impressive build. Having the entire coin tube shake to ensure new coins lay flat is clever. It was my endeavors with LEGO that let me successfully transfer from sales back into engineering in 2013, so be sure to use all of this experience to your benefit during and after college. There are too few 'engineers' these days with either common sense or the basic abilities to make things happen, but based on what I see here you'll do great. Good Luck.
@@ronaldmcrae Thank you very much! Coming from you means a lot! I’ve always been inspired by your creations and definitely took inspiration from your incredible slot machine. I start my engineering degree in a few weeks and am definitely excited to be able to continue my passion of engineering
Someone should do a GBC event but instead, it's arcade machines like these. This machine would be perfect for a real life arcade machine! I loved each second of the video as it explained each one of your genius mechanisms. The clutch system is probably my favorite part 🔥
That’s stupidly impressive! Aside from the function itself, I love how organized and clean the internals are!! I can’t imagine how painful that programming was lmao. You’re pumping out awesome machines like crazy, and I can’t wait to see what you do next!!
Thank you so so much! The programming took such a long time but luckily I was able to come up with a clever “scoring system” to detect if the wheels match which saved some major headaches 😂
Videos are incredible, but here are some tips from one creator to another. I would suggest buying some more lights and/or a (bright) light for the camera to both brighten the set and get rid of harsh shadows. The other thing if you know anything about cameras is the White Balance/color temperature. Some of the shots are very warm (yellow/orange) and look like they were recorded in a living room because of that. Making the temperature colder/cooler (whiter) will make it look much more professional and in turn more watchable to the average viewer. Keeping the White Balance consistent from shot to shot is also important. If you are working with a camera that should be an easy thing to change, but you can also manually adjust WB on a phone too and in editing software too. Awesome machine, and a lot of potential for the future :)
Thank you! I appreciate the advice! I don’t know why those two clips seemed over saturated but I use one lighting stand but I’ll definitely get the other one out for the next video!
You keep impressing me! Fantastic mechanism and great design. The coin-dispenser jiggling to adjust the stacked coins and the fact that you can insert multiple quarters at once is so smart.
Thank you so much! That mechanism kept those coins from jamming so many times, saving me countless headaches. The program became a nightmare with all the server/variables of credits, coins owed, etc etc though 😂
Absolutely amazing machine! Love the work you put into these videos! Such awesome mechanisms and great design! You must have so many bricks lol this machine is huuuuge
Thank you so much! My LEGO collection is definitely pretty big especially after taking apart that bowling alley. When making things this big the walls alone begin to take up so much time 😂
This is so impressive. I am always amazed at your skill level. I am trying to learn how to do these things for my Eiffel Tower MOC that will be 25 ft tall with working elevators, but I don't know where to even start.
It’s always so exciting to see the community grow, I’m really really hoping to see some of the younger builders continue to build their channels long term
@@JoshyBoi7832 there’s a one-way drive which is composed of 3 gears. The first one is motorized and the last one is the output. The middle gear is mounted via an arm that is free to lift up but gravity keeps it down. When down, the middle gear makes contact with the left and right one to have power transferred from the motorized gear to the output. When the motor stops and the output still spins, the middle gear ratchets by lifting up due to torque. The left (motorized gear) spins counterclockwise, the middle would spin clockwise, and the output counter clockwise. That orientation only allows torque one way. The other way just lifts the gear
Because that's not fun, and 2x2 flat tiles can easily get accidentally wedged without precise engineering to prevent it from flipping or rotating. A metal coin is round and has more weight, so it's less apt to get stuck on its side in the hopper
This guy knows more about mechanical engineering and slot machines than me and he's not even old enough to set foot on a casino floor 🙃
Hahahaha thank you! I start my engineering degree this fall so hopefully I’ll be able to continue to amaze!
What happened to your uploads?😭😭You just disappeared one day

This is an incredibly impressive machine! There's so many advanced mechanisms and tricks. It's simply Amazing!
Thank you so much! I’m still shocked how small I was able to get the actual machine inside

How does this not have many likes you are a great Lego engineer
@@ingridvalmes9229 thank you very much!
Definitely deserves more views
Lego whole heartily supports putting gambling addictions into the lives of little jimmy making a slot machine
Lago making kids gamble since 2024!!
ayy, sick build man. very well designed and explained.
😮😮😮 speechless!!

I absolutely love seeing the process in detail! Great video, keep up the outstanding work. 👏

Wow! The mechanisms are really smart and reliable. I might use this video for inspiration!
Thank you! Definitely feel free to use any mechanisms or ideas from my videos. I post to inspire others, I’m so glad I could inspire you!
This is so cool!!

dude this is so good, and i gotta say ur videomaking skills are just getting better and better. what a treat to watch!
Thank you so so much! Editing might just be my worst nightmare but I’m so glad it’s improving!
Yo keep up the good work dude amazing content!👍
This is seriously incredible. Excellent job!
Thank you very much!
Great! Now I can be gambling while I am eating😍
"Let's go gambling" now in lego
This is so impressive. I am always amazed at your skill level. I am trying to learn how to do these things for my Eiffel Tower MOC that will be 25 ft tall with working elevators, but I don't know where to even start.
Thank you! I remember you mentioning that, definitely start with the elevator tracks and the lift mechanism
Awsome! You think you can make a functional Pinball machine too?!
If this era of the LMC is making machines like this, who knows what the next era would make.
It’s always so exciting to see the community grow, I’m really really hoping to see some of the younger builders continue to build their channels long term
Damn. This machine is really smart and cool, keep up the good work!
Thank you so much!
Dude, youre a freakin genius!! super knowledgeable and amazing building!!
Thank you so much!!
YOO LETS GOO I CAN GAMBLE IN LEGO NOW 🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑
amazing!
You want open a lego arcade? Really nice machine!
Haha with all the machines I’ve made I definitely could! Thank you!
really good!!!!
Thank you!
Love the video style! Awesome machine too
That made my day! I was so uncertain about the video style, I’m so glad you enjoyed it!
so fucking cool man so so awesome great build keep up the great work
how does the ratcheting system work?

Just thought of an easier explanation: it works just like a bicycle how you can pedal to add power and then coast/free spin
hot dog, good job on this!
Thank you!
Wow

Instead of making these take real coins, why not just a flat 2 by 2 plate?
Because that's not fun, and 2x2 flat tiles can easily get accidentally wedged without precise engineering to prevent it from flipping or rotating. A metal coin is round and has more weight, so it's less apt to get stuck on its side in the hopper
I’m the person who asked for the smaller bowling alley
Yes! That’s on the to do list for sure, should be out within a month or so, so stay tuned!
