Pick and Scoop, a LEGO GBC (Great Ball Contraption) by Takanori Hashimoto
Get ready for the latest mesmerizing LEGO marble run machine from Takanori Hashimoto !
Pick and Scoop, his latest LEGO Great Ball Contraption, is a stunning build where an arm is lifting up your favorite basketball and soccer balls by pinching them. A tiny Lego shovel part is then scooping the GBC balls and throwing them within an exit ramp made of LEGO axles.
The amazing rotations of the main liftarm are inspired from a mangle wheel and pinions mechanism designed by Akiyuki but implemented here in a unique way, in a loop.
This GBC module, running at full speed, is impressively hypnotizing. You can now reproduce this GBC masterpiece thanks to building instructions available on Rebrickable.
