It took me like 3 loops to realize this wasn’t real lol. Good work.

I was hoping it was real. It inspires me to make a real one, anyway.

this looks really great. as an additional note, it looked (in my opinion, of course) better at 1.25x speed. 1.5x made the drop speed too fast.
really nice to watch on a loop for a while, thanks for sharing this

Wow! This is amazing! I didn’t know this could be made digitally, it looks so real, especially with the details of the bottle of glue and other pieces on the table, it’s awesome!
LamBeam t1_iy8lr2c wrote
Apparently I didn’t watch it enough times. I kept zooming in on the glue label.

How do I set this as a phone background Jesus this is calming

I disagree I think you got the speed right and most people don’t pay attention to these things in real life

Remove half of the slots to make it more mesmerizing. Idk if that will affect the physics or if the computer automatically adjusts for that.

The immediate loss of momentum when they land is the part that feels uncanny. Especially when combined with the feather-light roll down the initial slope, it feels like the density and friction of the balls is constantly changing.

Yeah they need a tiny bounce to pull off realism. But it's still super satisfying to watch regardless

Brk wtf i genuinely thought that was real until i read the title

I think the drop speed is a bit fast, makes the balls look very heavy.

Is it an animation??? Can’t tell if it’s real but it seams no!!

I actually thought the balls were heavy when looking at the initial roll at top, which would lack much of a bounce as they fell down.
gaytransdragon t1_iy9u7x9 wrote
Damn, bro made the thingamajig
Okay_Secret t1_iya00x9 wrote
I think it’s because they have zero bounce, as well as the contraption not vibrating from the impact.

The too-slow roll when the first pop out of the elevator bugged me.

And they seem too heavy
Aware-Reveal7950 t1_iya9nz0 wrote
You’re right
Trickdaddy1 t1_iya9uiy wrote
And they fall at an angle that seems to have too much horizontal movement for the slow speed they’re at
bitey87 t1_iyaacyj wrote
Same, none of the bearings did the tight spiral before dropping. I've watched too much Marble Olympics. lol
GOoooooooorangers!

As far as I can tell, it's only posted once in each sub, which is perfectly fine to me.

If you click in it you can see it is animated.
CutieBoBootie t1_iyaje3x wrote
Heavy objects with momentum don't just stop when they hit an object. There's like a physics law about energy or something like that. The point is if the ball had a heavy mass then the moment and the weight would be enough for a tiny bounce. Not like a giant hop but enough that there would be something.

Duffman66CMU t1_iyaojh7 wrote
That’s just what I noticed. There outfit to be a slight bounce, depending on what ‘material’ the green part is made of. Looks like jade or plastic to me, so I’d assume it’s hard enough to bounce. Makes my brain hurt.

Fairly easy construction , youve given an engeineer a non destructive idea that he likes, good job. Difficult task. Well done

you can make stuff like this in lego. Lookup great brick contraptions
emptybottleofdoom t1_iybr0ny wrote
IMO would be neater with less ball interaction. Smaller balls, less frequent release up top, larger trays for them to roll around.

I second the drop comment. Too fast or something. The rest of everything is so good, it kind of stands out as "wrong".

the-grim t1_iycuugx wrote
There's overrotation at play there, since they're rolling on rails. Basically the bearings are spinning on the rails at a "normal" speed, but each full rotation doesn't move them forward as much because they only touch the rails at the sides rather than at the bottom.
toastspork t1_iydcmq4 wrote
Too smooth. They're instantly at rail speed.
They'd pop out of the holes, and skid a bit as they'd decelerate. Then, since the rails are at a slight decline, they'd accelerate a bit.

Sorry do you mean Great Ball Contraptions? I googled Brick and the other one keeps popping up :) thanks! I’ve been looking for something like this for my kid.
ryclarky t1_iy89oy5 wrote
Very nicely done! The only thing that seemed off to me is when the balls drop down the holes. The seem to warp and it looks a bit unnatural. But very nice work!
