Oh my god, okay, it's happening, everybody stay calm!
So excited!!!!
World tour World Tour WORLD TOUR!!
My heart broke a little more each hour I checked CZcams for an MMX video - until now!
nice vid
LET'S GOOOO!
Martin in July: "This is the final test, we're playing one billion marbles. I've been awake for five days straight, so far we've played 1.270.000 marbles without a single failure. Big shoutout to Lavazza coffee, their espresso is the only thing that keeps me upright... only 998.730.000 more marbles to go. I'm ready!"
give this man a Wilson-cookie while waiting.
If it played 1 marble a second it would take 37 years for it to play one billion marbles. So it seems to fit how long it takes to build this.
This video is not sponsored by Lavazza coffee, I'm just a happy customer
Playing one trillions marbles at one per second would take 31,000 years. That is a lot of coffee.
@@Zeldaretter GIVE this man a TRUCK load of Wilson cookies!
100% gonna cry when the old marble machine song is played again
This new song feels like Marble Machine Song part 2
My eyes are already misting.
Not only that, but being able to film it in 1 take with no marbles hitting the floor at the end... Its gonna be so good
I'm already crying
@@EllisanLeonhardt he has to stream it
I cant believe my eyes. This is incredible, it should be the work of a dozen experts- a carpenter, a welder, an engineer, a CNC guy, an electrician, a song writer, a pianist, a guitarist, a percussionist, a sound engineer, a film maker, it blows my mind how one young person can create such a masterpiece. Go you!!!!
THIS
Took the words right out of my mouth! So remarkable! And really it looks like something out of the Dr. Seuss books have come to life🎉❤
I've never seen someone so dedicated to engineering, programming, and musical composition in my life. Kudos to you, man
It's gonna be an extremely emotional experience when he plays his first full song on this. I'll probably cry
Same for sure
Same omg
am I the only one almost starting to cry because of joy, when he started to play on the keyboard? o.o
I will say: This is the test we'd been waiting for. And then declare the test whatever the result will be. Emotions would not even be considered. Science, numbing emotions since forever ago.
@@solarplexus9782 I almost started crying because of the music ... regardless of the test or its result ... just beautiful music õ.õ
One marble on the floor and he's gonna turn that render into reality
Would be pretty poor for the patreon people and sponsors to see this happening 😬
@@d.wetteskind Then it a good thing he has those renders to take his frustrations out on 😅
The animations may be helping Martin from finding out himself what it'd be like to pimp slap this thing into oblivion. Thanks all for this
I hope not
Bi-polar Martin: I have a baseball bat in the corner...
what the hell... This is how I imagined people like DaVinci and Galileo spent their free time. This man is not wasting his time. Absolutely wonderful.
Someone so smart being so mentally sound is more than a rarity, never ceases to amaze me how well he keeps his composure in analysis with the kind of work he does.
Even though I had nothing to do with this, the design, the construction, the music or anything - I have been here since the start of this project and it was a major sigh of relief when that 10000th marble landed and zero failures. You should be so proud of everything you've accomplished, every skill you've learned and mastered, you went and created your own niche. From artist to engineer and back again - you're finally after all these years almost there. I'm so glad that I've gotten to at the very least be a spectator.
Very well said!
I remember in 2017 when I found Wintergatan and the MMX project. Amazing times.
Well said David. Amazing to see this happening.
you sir,.. just everything i feel about this project. so glad i'm part of it , even if it's just observing the process and rooting for Martin while he's working. ^^
i couldnt say it better myself
Absolutely incredible!

Imagine the sheer pride and happiness he must feel for not only making, but also perfecting this unparalleled masterpiece of engineering and art.
Idk. I bet he would trade the machine for an extra inch anyday. Interpret at will

Can’t wait for the World Tour. Specifically when the roadies need to fix a mic stand or something and you whip out that angle grinder…
@Azrael Rose, that gave me a good laugh!
this is historic. I don't think I'll ever experience another journey like this. From finding the original music video, to seeing him trying to fix a few things, to thousands of people joining his mission, to him reaching perfection. Every step has been mesmerizing and inspiring, and I've been here through every mishap and moment of brilliance. This journey has been a life changing thing to witness, and Martin is the most inspirational person I've ever seen. Thank you Martin, and thanks everyone who helped him.
Exactly this! This series is legendary!
shoutout to hannes too for editing these masterpeices. the way this journey comes to us is through him and his ability to create an awesome narrative/atmosphere in every video, whiddling down what im sure is hundreds of hours of b roll and choosing the coolest renders to display from the community
@@yam-ingtonjr7606 So true Jenny! Huge shout-out to Hannes!
down boy
It has been a such a long and inspiring journey to see someone learn the skills to finish their vision. I have enjoyed every step, even the frustrating backwards steps but that desire for consistency and reliability will pay off big time. I hope I get to see the machine play on stage one day.
The first marble machine was spectacular....but it's successor is a work of art. Magnificent.
I have watched you build this device for over a year. It makes me nervous that you could have a house fire and it would be gone. Please make sure you take precautions to guard this masterpiece from disaster and mother nature.
Fortunately the majority of the work has been in learning. And in designing, and hopefully his cad files are securely backed up in a cloud location.
A fire would be terrible. But the machine could be rebuilt decently fast as he could remake all the parts straight from the cad files.
10:30 I was holding my breath that there would be no marbles falling on the floor in the final seconds. Congrats Martin! 🎉🎉
Yep, true congratulations
7:23 when he asked are you seeing what I am seeing? I thought he meant some marbles fallen out
@@AkivaB He said, "the floor is clean my friends."
@@mohammadzuhairkhan8661 i know
Spoilers!
Proud and loud! 10,000 congratulations to everyone that is feeling so happy for this.
EG políglota agarrando inspiración para el reporte...
Congrats to me?! Lmfao 😆
Well thankyou! I didn't do anything to contribute to anything related in this video but I am happy he's making progress.
Dude.. it's just a guy playing with marbles.. it's not that impressive
I cried when the music hit
Thank you for your endless energy and positivity. This is the kind of mindset I need to keep my projects going.
as an engineer and someone who does fabrication work, the amount of focus care and time that is going into this is incredible.
Martin: Are you seeing what I am seeing?
Me: OH NO
Martin: Let me put a red circle there
Me: OH CRAP WHAT FAILED
Martin: Do you see that clean floor?
Me: Oohhhh thanks
that was me! exactly :-)
I had a small heart attack I have to say
But there was dust on my monitor right in the middle of the circle, and I believed it was a marble.
I was mesmerized by the marbles coming up the fish stairs.
@@BennettSanderson I was thinking the same thing but instead of a spec of dust it was a crumb from my snacks
Why did I think it was a tiny marble
Love that you made is explosion proof this time, no matter how many time you exploded it, it pulled itself back together. Impressive.
Wow this makes me emotional! And also thank you for the wrap up of changes you made since the last reliability test! It's incredible how many parts you redesigned on the way to this success! You are a genius Martin! 🤯😍❤️
Mate, this is absolutely brilliant! Normally in the CZcams engineering space, you just gotta get the thing to work long enough to film it. What you've done here... the level of reliability is insane, and it really speaks to your dedication and attention to detail. Great job, and all the best!
First verified guy
You're describing exactly what happened with the first machine. That went viral and then fueled this second version.
At least four 9s of quality, depending on how you measure. That's pretty dang good.
I see he did a 30K marble video, too.
This is genius level!!!
It has no point. Learn what this means. (when he kurt kobains in public)
"ARE YOU SEEING WHAT I'M SEEING?!"
My heart stopped for a moment.
"NO MARBLES ON THE FLOOR"
.....
he had us on the first half not gonna lie xDDD
The expectation buildup with instruments added each time... when the msic finally came together after the 10000th marble dropped, I had tears coming to my eyes, because I could feel Martin's feelings, I could see the end of the journey and the relief of it all. Finally, music with MMX! It feels like Martin has achieved an insane milestone, and now just has to repeat the same known and proven process for the other channels. No more surprises, right? Live concert by the end of the Summer, right?
This feels absolutely good, and I can't wait for this channel to transition from an engineering channel to a music composing channel. I loved the engineering channels, I'll love the music composing channel even more because of its journey.
Music with MMX? what does SIMD have to do with this? 😳
I can't be the only one who wants to see the original marble machine song remastered on the new machine
I really hope he plays the old song on it
I'm beginning to accept the MMX as a stand alone band mate. For a while I was thinking the electric motor may remove the charm from the hand cranked machine, but the machine is transforming into an independent entity unto itself.
Can’t wait till it becomes a sentient being
Plus it frees up his hands to manually play instruments with the levers up top, play cords on the bass, muting levers, rhythm machine etc... or like you are saying he can stroll around stage playing other instruments while the MMX does its thing.
@@solinus7131 I am pretty sure it already is a sentient being
It is foot cranked too, the hand one is just to get it going
The motor is only intended for testing. The hand and foot crank with flywheel should be all that's needed in a concert.
Really proud this is great!

I am so happy for the fact that I've seen this project set off as it was, and then observed it heading to this monstrous greatness.
I've been watching your videos for the past three years, and still today am as captivated by the sheer beauty of engineering and music, how you've evolved and perfected this art form, as I was the first time I watched your original video. I can't help but feel like I'm watching Michelangelo paint the Sistine Chapel...so thankful you've stayed the course and let us take the journey with you!
Those sound deadening improvements really had a dramatic effect compared to the last test, I can barely hear the machine in the background at all.
All the audio has been carefully mixed for this video, but I'm sure that those improvements would be palpable if you were standing in the room listening to it.
@@nagualdesign His audio is always carefully mixed in every episode. But the last time it was carefully mixed there was still heavy machine sounds. He really improved the sound
The visuals starting at 10:46 are AMAZING. I could see all of them being projected on a Jumbotron behind the stage for the Wintergatan STADIUM TOUR
great idea
Did someone say "STADIUM"?!? **We are the champions, my friends! And we'll keep on fightin' 'till the end!**
What a gorgeous piece of art! Congrats on reaching your goal! There's no such thing as too late and I'm glad you were so happy with your success!
HOLY POTATOES I DIDN'T KNOW SM57's CAME ANGLED LIKE THAT!
Man, as a fellow engineer and musician, I am absolutely blown away by your drive, passion, skill and approach to problem solving. You are an inspiration, sir. I wouldn't be worthy to dust this machine off after a performance.
When the World Tour kicks off, and if we're lucky enough to be blessed by your presence in America, please consider a stop at Clemson University in South Carolina! My alma mater is a science and engineering school with no real formal music program, but a full suite of performing ensembles made up of multi-talented engineers, architects and scientists, all who would love to see the Marble Machine X in action!
I can't believe how many years I've been watching this progression.
Me too I started on episode 7 my second year at school for mechanical engineering and im a graduate now! It's been a journey to say the least!
Eu não posso acreditar quantos anos e mais Assistindo este Progressão
This actually makes me super emotional. The fact that I just witnessed three years of Martin making this, just for him to reach this point... Congrats dude!
This is absolutely beautiful and a work of art! So awesome to watch and follow along on this journey.
Can't wait to see the og marble machine song played on this one!
Literally a living legend at this point! Been fans for a long time and love the evolution of the marble machine!
who needs a drummer when you can just recruit 10,000 marbles for your band
10k marbles who play on time
You’ll need a professional marble wrangler though, and there is only one in the world. You can see him in this video.
@@MarcLucksch being the only one in the world is some tight-ass job security
@@Tina-Brune lmao fo real
So sorry Marcus, your position has been mechanized.
I'd love to know more about how Martin composes songs, he's got such a distinct style that sounds so pretty, especially those arpeggios
^^ yes pls martin!
I truly believe this man is a special individual and has the capability of creating works of art that will go down in history.
Crazy how far you have come. It feels good to say I've been here from the beginning and watched almost all of your videos leading to this point. Following you along in this journey has been really fun to watch and it's amazing how much progress you have made. I hope to see you on the world tour some day!
That baseball bat you were going to take to the machine should have been labeled "Glory is temporary, pain is permanent"
Now that's what I call an "Exploded" view. 11:00
Ayy small world, I love your flight stick bindings!
Martin loves the catharsis of seeing the MMX explode.
He really wasn't kidding with the baseball bat. This machine has taken years off his life, he was due some payback!
It's been a treat, seeing you organically learn and grow as an engineer throughout this project entirely in pursuit of a beautiful instrument.
You took the words right out of my mouth, I wish. Thank you. 1920 my father's father, a mailman in Twin Falls, Idaho bought a Monarch Baldwin player piano for his family; wife's family from Malmo, Sweden. 9 kids and 60 grandchildren later, I fortunately had put so many years training as a pianist from Maria Levinskaya Pianoforte School, London, UK and voice from Mrs. Sailor, who taught voice in New York City for 55 years. She told me Pavorotti was trained in New York City. She said she knew that because Pavorotti's teacher also taught her. So of my 59 siblings and cousins I was fortunate to inherit this marvellous piano. The guts are long gone but the tone is beyond belief. Example: I also raised 9 children, whose mother was so beyond belief that her grandfather, hard worker and lay minister told her she could have done so much better. Of course I was hurt but I knew he was right. He married a girl from Switzerland. She probably felt the same. Anyway I entertained at Old Faithful Inn for several years and in addition to being active in my Church, trying to be a good husband and father, raising them from money earned as a career graphic artist 40 to 50 hours a week spent 30 hours a week for 5 years composing one song. My poor piano had dozen of cards in between the hammers to keep them going straight to their strings. My family said they thought the piano would crash through the ceiling to the living room because I played so hard. 27 minutes long. Lyrics took 3 weeks to write, but I'm still trying to perfect piano and voice to fit the mood of my lyrics. So thank you for your comments about this wonderful music making machine.
i dont understand exactly what happened with the clock escapement. can you do a video on that? the escapement should prevent this at high pressure. thats its whole purpose in the clock.
feels like the pallet is slipping from the wheel
I might be wrong on this but i think its the spring strength in combination with the fact that the force created from the teeth is out of alignment with the point or rotation of the pallet(tik tok part) thus creating a moment (force*distace). Someone can correct me if im wrong. I still dont get why he didnt go with the broken escapement mechanism which was not pressure sensitive. He talked about less parts in that vid and then overengineered these mechanisms(imo) with so many parts, although i like all of it except the fact that he created this spring linkage and didnt use the broken escapement. Maybe theres more behind this someone could fill us in if hes been on discord.
There is a design error. The bottom pallet/tooth angle is not at right angles to the pallet pivot, which means the pallet can "cam out" when the wheel is pushed hard enough. The cad team have a fix designed and tested. Means new wheels and pallets, but the rest of the gate can be unchanged.
@@tomnewsom9124 Won't the gate be rammed to hard every time if the pressure is so big then?
@@weccojecco Correct. The solution is to make sure it's impossible to get the marble pressure that high ever.
Can we just acknowledge how musically talented this guy is? I'm jealous

Care to rethink your wording?
@@billkeithchannel no cause you're desperately clinging on to an antiquated meaning.
@@tomgray971 Dictionaries change the meanings of words as people use them incorrectly. This was not the definition in my 1963 dictionary and is truer to the greek zelos of zeal or enthusiastic devotion. Bending the language to the will of the people and not the other way around is how a language is lost. sigh.
@@billkeithchannel bending a language to the will of people is how languages evolve
@@apenasumcoalamagico8638 Language is useless though if definitions change too quickly, because their whole point is to express the same concept with someone whom you are unfamiliar with.
Languages should NOT bend to the will of the people, because there is no point of having it in the first place if you are going to change meanings at a whim.
Adding new words, or updating definitions after a few decades of new usages, however is not bending the language, it is expanding it. Perhaps that is what you meant.
When you use bend, it implies a structural change, and that can lead to LESS accurate communication, which is a BAD thing.
I want you to know this is such an incredible feat of engineering and brings absolute delight to see. it's been amazing watching it progress over time.
Did not expect to be taught engineering on a music channel this is so cool.

You’re a F**kin genius, period.
"damn bro okay" *pretty surprised by it*
OMG CONGRATULATIONS ON COMPLETING THE MMX!!!! Your celebration track is baller too! I can’t wait to hear new music for this badass and beautiful contraption! You and your teams have put so much work into this and I’m so glad to see it all come together!
Congratulations Martin and Crew! What an amazing journey this has been!
Congratulations Martin! You can say it should work 2 years ago, but honestly, compare what it was 2 years ago. All CAD, SO...MANY... IMPROVEMENTS. Reliability, RELIABILITY and MORE RELIABILITY. You've learned so, so much.
Don't step over a great success like this. Humans hold on to their failures, and forget all the achievements they had. Celebrate them so you don't forget them!
Oh no ...
Okay : Martin : GO on the discord server !!!! Right now !
This problem has been FORSEEN and described exactly in the #idea-vaults ! It has to do with the geometry of the teeths and the pallets ... The solution is already found. And it does not involve cutting huge amounts of plywood again .... Go check this out ! Now !
I don’t think Martin reads CZcams comments
I hope you get this through to him. It’s all beyond me though, hope he hears the suggestions and gets it working soon!
You need to say this on discord, I fear.
@@Moloxer yes this -^
I completely agree, there's only a slim chance that he sees this... But this problem is already written all over discord, so I can't help on that front...
@@vqetu3626 he's aware of the problem, if you look closely he has already temporarily modified the geometry of the pallet adding a screw, he said on discord that he's considering whether keeping the screw to test the other instruments or making a new modified pallet
Man, this is insane and amazing, the original Marble Machine is my favorite video on youtube, can't wait for it to be properly dethroned. I admire your vision, patience and dedication, I am glad you exist and that I am aware of you and your work.
I love how you not only stress test the machine, but you turn it into a musical track along the way. makes the video that much more pleasant to watch
I don't know were 4 years of my life have gone I feel like it was yesterday that I saw your blueprint video.
I feel exactly the same lol
I just realized that there will be a day without updates about this marvelous machine. Because it will be done.
I have goosebumps.
Then starts Marble Machine Y
This popped up in my recommended after I watched your original.
Your attention to detail in both the engineering & the musicality is nothing short of outstanding. Not sure if you're crazy or a genius - probably lots of both. Bravo!
YES! I've been following you for years. Thank you. I knew you were a very smart guy. Your confidence in your idea has inspired so many. Thank You!
This should be a Netflix documentary with Morgan freeman doing the narration
Netflix? No. But I do agree with Morgan Freeman.
Relax
Perhaps
Netflix would likely ruin the autenticity of it.
Omg this comment, gave me a good laugh trying to imagine his voice narrating lol
Martin, congrats on this milestone!
It looks like the right side clock escapement is not functioning properly. The gear is not actually interacting with the bottom pallet. The slo-mo at 18:07 shows this really well.
It appear that Martin added a metal pin which is engaging the escapement wheel instead of the bottom pallet. Likey a prototype addition trying to remedy the runaway escapement under high marble pressure. This may be a one off design that is no longer necessary because of the pressure reducing wiggles and would explain why it's never mentioned. If it is needed, look forward to it in a future video!
Yea something has gone seriously wrong here and not covered in the video. The bottom of the escapement IS the regulator. I'm wondering is the problem is how far those fingers are moving away from the escapement (looks like over 10cm). It is excessive and will slow the machine down too. Ideally it would only move a cm or two.
@@mcbeenb No no, that's not the problem. The problem is very well know from the discord community (they forsaw it happen), and it has to do with the geometry of the teeths and the pallets ... Check the #idea-vaults in the discord server to see a graphic version (Martin really need to see this !)
Yeah I also noticed that. Hopefully not another rabbit hole...
At czcams.com/video/0b-B_Bg31Zg/video.html you can see the same happen on the left channel... too little marble pressure?
These clock escapements do need pressure to function after all. (the spring or weights in a real clock)
this machine has changed significantly since 6 years ago with the original
So happy for you.... I've been watching you since day 1. You keep soaring, you'll continue to amaze I have no doubt.
Dont be too hard on yourself with the progress of this machine. You're doing something nobody else is doing and you're making it incredibly entertaining in the process. As far as I see it, you're succeeding already.
I'm not even sure why this is one of the great adventures in this generation. It just is.
I can tell you why it is. World seems to be a shit place rn, trump, conservative politics, wars, hate everywhere. everywhere. and this dudes gathers nice people and engineers and prooves humanity can be really really awesome :-p
I think it's because his dedication and creativity is very inspiring, on top of that he is very humble and have great personality, it's just an incredible person making incredible thing that invited lots and lots of positive supporters!
Man that machine is a masterpiece of engineering. You have a lot to be proud of. I wish I was half as creative as you are at engineering and solving mechanical problems. Carry on, I cant wait to see what comes next.
Lovely work man! It's been such a pleasure watching this progression all these years!
The engineering brilliance of this is easily on par with billion dollar companies that have entire teams dedicated to designing products. Oh, and it looks incredible.
I'm listening to this on a really nice pair of headphones and your recording setup sounds great. You're definitely a modern-day renaissance man.
"playing with marbles isn't rocket science!"
Oh, yes it is! It's totally on par! And watching the progress and the many many small problems and solutions is really inspiring! I'm so happy this 10k test worked 100%!
Can't wait ro see more than one or two channels of the machine in action! Cyberbass for the win!
Martin, I praise you for your “Angel’s Patience” (“Engelen geduld” in Dutch 😜) and even though I have watched every single one of the MMX videos, this is one of my favorite ones!
All of your videos are masterpieces, but this one had an almost “old school”, tutorial like quality to it, a bit like the early ones you did on the beautiful islands in Gothenburg (where I am right now 🤩).
Please don’t loose faith, you have come so far, and as an engineer myself I can say that I am not just proud of you… but I am in AWE of you!
Regards from a Sunny Gothenburg.
Your loyal Dutch/Swedish fan, Roul Kierkels
real nice!!!
Also an engineer here. Also in awe of you Martin. Keep up the good work. Two steps forward, one step back, that's the way we dance.
We have the same saying in sweden! :) "en ängels tålamod"
The thing isn't even finished and its a beautiful piece of engineering. Absolutely phenomenal job to Martin and everyone on the team. I feel like any project, especially one as complex as this, requires patience however, the waiting makes it all the more worth it.
Those renderings of the MMX exploding are just gorgeous. Thanks and congratulations to the whole team! Love you.
You have OFFICIALLY become a legend in music machines and WILL stand by the others in the museum that inspired you to make this! Fantastic Job!!!
"Queen and David Bowie - Under Pressure" comes to mind as a theme song for MMX. No matter what Martin does he cannot escape the problem of cumulative pressure from the marbles.
THE MAN BEHIND THIS INSTRUMENT IS A GENIUS ❤️❤️❤️
No matter how skilled of an engineer you are. You would never be able to create the amazing music you do, if you were not a talented musician as well. You always give the feel good vibes.
Absolutely incredible. Beautiful.

Agreed
Can't wait to hear the music you will make when this is finished. The song you made for this video is beautiful and it seems like you just slapped it together with very little effort.
He probably did!.
Congratulations Martin, & the Wintergatan community. Fixing all the problems to get 10,000 marbles to play with no lost marbles was just utterly amazing! Way to go!!
Wow, this is perfection, this guy is a tremendous genius, the design of that marble machine is amazing
Can I just say, I missed the typical Wintergatan music. I was absolutely excited to here some of it today!
I started watching in highschool, then went to college, dropped out after 1 year of psychology, now i'm 2 years into computer science. These videos are a big part of my life and i'm very happy to see you're finally reaching your destination. It's been a journey but we're now on our way
YAY! Great work man, this is amazing to watch and hear. So good
music + engineering, what a stunning combo
you can say it took a lot of balls to make this vid
A journey of ten thousand marbles starts with a single obsession.
I love how every test run becomes it's own song along the way.
Somebody will definitely make a medley of them all eventually and that's so exciting!
All the work that went into this machine must make this so much more satisfying and make you feel evem more excited. I honestly don't have the right words about how great this is. Can't wait to see more
Thanks for going in depth with how it works,must have been a great feeling that it worked flawlessly the science and engineering that went into that instrument is unbelievable such a beautiful song.
10:49 Please Martin, we need that shot in wallpaper or poster form as that looks B-E-A-UTIFUL! i can totally see something like that on the MMX in a concert like the old Daftpunk Alive 2007.
congrats on 10,000 drops with zero issues, here is to the next 10,000!
I was the renderer for that one! Here's a raw 4k frame from it: i.imgur.com/iYI84LX.png
@@labtec901 incredible!
“The devil is in the details in this project”
Nothing more true has been said, the details always make or break things.
And don’t feel bad about the time it took, you’ll find that even the most well planned and well engineered projects can easily go over time and budget. Your passion and obsession to getting to the finish line will serve you well throughout your life.

DaVinci meets Rube Goldberg 👍
A brilliant engineering marvel!😱
It's amazing to think that I have seen this marble machine from scratch to its current work of art form
I'm literally tearing up! I've followed you for so long, feeling your frustrations when things didn't work out and this is just so beautiful! The music, the engineering... It's been such a wonderful journey and I've loved every second of it! It's gonna be such a bittersweet feeling when you finally complete the MMX.
I was starting to worry only a few hours ago, as it had been far more than a week since the last videos (which were on a rapid release channel), so I assumed, something might have gone wrong. And obviously, it did, but you fixed it right away and it felt sooooo satisfying to see you celebrate this big win.
Congratulations Martin, it is wonderful seeing you as you are climbing to the mountain top. I become confident the MMX will be finished this year, and I can't wait to see it happen!
Congratulations Man !! It's amazing you're dedication and skill is beyond commendable
I've been following you since your 2016 video of the previous Marble Machine... now this is a passion project. Thank you for sharing this we us
