littleitaly1990 Posted March 26, 2008 Report Share Posted March 26, 2008 (edited) For those of you who don't know, a Rude Goldberg machine is basically a bunch of small simple machines (i.e. lever, wheel, incline plane) combined to achieve a simple task. One example is this really cool one by Honda: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-4187430023476942057 Well I need to make one for physics class, and basically I decided to do it without a group ( because I would probably get stuck with some lazy mofos). So I will probably get the help of a few friends and maybe family and build the most kick ass machine possible. Anyone have any idea as to what the machines goal can be, or any types of machines they would like to see put in there....I will make a vid of it when it is all functional... I want to use... Fire, strings being cut, music/speakers, electricity, incline planes, levers, wheels, and anything else that someone can think of.... Physics is my thing so I am going to have fun with this...

I remember that project my senior year of high school. It's really tough. Harder than you think. Especially when you wan to add so much. Best advice I could give is start now and don't wait to work on it. Me and my partner made a machine that had an electric conveyor belt that would scoop up golf balls and bring them to a self fixing catapult that would launch them into a basket bout 40 yds away. It was sweet, wish I took pics and made a vid. Quote Facebook Youtube Murdered '07 Silverado Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's just say, I can't draw to save my fuckin life...But I am Really Really good at making machine-like shit...and I have about 6 houses full of scrap shit to use.... This is my kind of project, especially since I'm too poor to actually enjoy spring break this year. Quote A vitrolic, megalomaniacal sadistic psychopath.

littleitaly1990 Posted May 1, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 1, 2008 It's "Rube Goldberg".Just FYI. lol I just realized that and changed and then saw this post.... So a little update, the rough plans are drawn out, and all of the materials are gathered. The final result will be a nice cold glass of rum and coke on the rocks....did I say rum? I meant "cherry".....60 proof cherry Quote A vitrolic, megalomaniacal sadistic psychopath. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
