according to the creator he made this all from his own design and that he didn't know 100% mechanical skee-ball machines existed until he finished this (he thought all machines were electronic)
And here I had a hard time building a car with K'NEX. Plus a lot of parts I never even knew existed.
I thought it was pretty impressive and then it started [I]keeping score[/I] and oh my fuck this is awesome.
Welp, I know how I'm spending my evening when I get home from work.
Holy shit what.
How do you even do all that without electronics.
2:50 nearly made me shit my pants.
How?
I hope this was made by Pee-Wee Herman.
Oh man that ramp would be a BITCH to take apart if he ever had to. I remember getting all kinds of bruises trying to pull apart some knex pieces connected to the sides of the rods.
It fucking counts jesus christ this guy is amazing.
Give a medal to this man, seriously.
He should work for NASA, next MARS lander made from K'Nex.

10 minutes from landing on mars only to find a piece left in the box, oh my fuck!
Man I remember building all kinds of cars and stuff with just 2 chests of K'NEX. Thought that was a lot of parts, but holy crap this puts lego builds to shame.

How?
The most complex things I've made with Knex:
Pinball machine (official pack thing)
Roller Coaster (Also offical pack thing)
A rubberband revolver
This puts everything I've ever made to shame.

Masturbating furiously to K'Nex manuals.
I'd love to see the design work, especially since the creator did everything from scratch.
I think this is really cool. However in all honesty, I feel that this person is wasting such potential building something like this. I am not trying to say he is bad, what I am saying is that with such amazing skills, Imagine things he could create without messing around with knex.
As that other dude said though he should try to get a deal with Knex for that machine!
I would be scared shitless the balls would break something.
[QUOTE=Lolkork;37129336]He probably uses that potential, this is most likely something that he does in his spare time. And I don't think that all that knex was cheap.[/QUOTE]
Totally agree, if anything, all that Knex cost a bloody fortune, so best on him with snatching that gig!
extremely impressive

I assume you're meaning the score.

He probably doesn't need it. He must design mechanical machines for a living in order to acheive this level of ingenutiy, and whatever he does pays him well enough to let him pursue hobbies like this.

How else?
