A VPN is only used to connect corporate sites together or to allow employees and partners remote access….not for circumventing legal restrictions or so called securing your web traffic…
@@markscottuk Indeed. Why are VPN's even wanting advertising?
So wild! Your engineering skills are top notch! I subbed
@@markscottuk yeah, these sponsors are quite scummy. I understand that he needs money thought, so it makes sense
cringe ahh vpn sponsorship
7:49 the fact that this contraption does NOT break with the speed of the motor makes It even better
theres a reason we use similar joints in real life too
@@QuietBorb Where?
@@Ryanisalive in industrial machinery
@@QuietBorb Thanks a lot :)
@@Ryanisalive They’re also called a CV joint in cars. They’re used on front wheel drives. Cv meaning constant velocity joint. it allows the wheel to thurn left and right while still getting power from the motor
The cat is really impressive.
That's quite amazing what you can do with Legos nowadays.
I know. I wonder what kind of things we'll be able to do with Legos in say, 10 to 20 years?
@@superdupersillydude in 10 years mechanical analog computers will make a comeback thanks to lego
The creator was so impressed himself he decided not to destroy the cat with the engine
Actually that is not a Lego cat, I believe it's produced by mega bloks
@@gabrieldarcy1744 PREPOSTEROUS
If there's one thing this video has taught me, it's that the janky physics in videogames when you move physics objects too fast are actually realistic. 😂
What vibration does to a mf
please do not vibrate the homies
That one for generating undulating surfaces at 5:52 looks so smooth and unnatural almost like it's CG'd in but its real..
All of them are so impressive!
Exactly my thought
Oddly satisfying
i need this thing
imagine having your whole roof or wall covered with moving panels like this
It looks a lot like a water droplet. So satisfying lmao. I would have that sitting on my desk.
That destruction ending was extremely entertaining.
It is the cat that ends the video.
And for once the cat isn't destructing the models😉
The true satisfaction!
idk i like the cat ending best
@@ErikS- lol i like the way u said the ultimate destroyer the cat, being patient
ye, The bricksplosions and the music... Very fitting!
I like how the thing that usually breaks first is not the mechanism, but the bricks anchoring the mechanism
at one point it was the tape holding it to the table
The one which didn't break was well balanced.
Add a bit of vibration reduction such as counterweights or shock mounts and most of these would last indefinitely
Gonna need the machine from 0:27 but on a much smaller scale. For research purposes.
🤔
Wait... Smaller-
You are filthy! I like you!
(Please share your experience, i wanna do resear.... a close friend wants to do some research too 😬)
Found the Minifigure.
But I wish I hadn't.
@@quantumblur_3145 Ayoo... the minifigure got violated.
7:45 the way the thing just gets *_yeeted_*
I think that purple square ripple machine is my favorite mechanism I've ever seen built in LEGO.
I think it’s the same for me 😂
I love how the more complex the mechanism the more it looks like a natural organic movement of something that is alive
this is an interesting point, sir
Just look at nature for ultimate complexity - like the exoskeleton of a lobster - so similar to our space suits!
@@tomrogers9467 blue lobster moment
@@BattiToPutin What's that? Is that like the new version of the blue waffle or something?
@@happyjohn354 it's just a bad millenial meme
The cut at 23 💀
Also I like how instead of breaking in a more civilized manner, pretty much all of them just straight up explode
Lego motor goes *brrrrrrrr* and lego pieces get yeeted across the room. 😂
Why do they have to do my girl Chell dirty like that?
Yeah the motor is so powerful that I believe it was primarily designed for wheels.
The scissors just frantically wobbling away is the best thing ever lol
Some of them are really hypnotizing, and I like to see a longer version of them :)
I think you might mean mesmerizing...
thats what she said....
Uh huh.. 5:06
Ya I really like the 28 mechanics one, that was super cool to see the whole thing put together and running, I wonder if he used a stronger power source he could get the mechanics at the end to move quicker or if it's just an uneven ratio of energy distribution between them all, maybe it's highest to lowest or it's just cuz there's too much weight?
@@nathanielbailey108 dammit, you beat me to what I came to comment
I love 0:27 I can see a scaled up version being very useful
Damn it I was going to make that joke 😂 oh well lol
Same with #11 @ 2:25
oml
no cap
Num 14 we get a buddy system
At 5:45 I started laughing uncontrollably idk why
Not sure what I expected coming into this. My mind was blown by each and every sculpture. The perfect amalgamation of genius, art, and engineering. Followed by the destruction of engineering but the creation of more art. Karen still falling into the fire is just an added bonus.
6:50 Perfect timing of the music and the Lego figure falling into and, sliding out of frame from the top right hand corner to the bottom right hand corner.
Mini figure: “Wheeeeeeeeeee!!!”
Oh man, these were works of art, and I was so worried they were just going to be torn apart by hand. Even though they were still destroyed, I feel like it was appropriate, like it was still part of the show.
Not really destroyed, (a relief), just self -disassembled.
@Repent and believe in Jesus Christ Thanks for your relevant input
Relevance is subjective, both true and a lie; seen as an inch, and taken as a mile.
From the bellows of laughter, to the darrows of a sigh.
Through the depths of despair, and joys from on high,
Nothing goes unnoticed, by the all seeing eye.
I love how all of these are based on such simple principles yet it takes me a bit to understand them let alone design something like that... seriously wth is that 5:30
The destruction montage had big "brick in a washing machine" energy.
The RPM of that Lego motor is probably over *9000* 😂
This was a journey. The engineering, the artistry and creativeness, and the humour. This should be in a modern art exhibition!!
One person should not have this much skill and ability. Also hey kitty cat!
yep great video and cool creations, good editing well done
Absolutely true
Seems like someone's pushing too hard to be friendly. Hi you little creepy Mark MeppyMan? What's up? Are you collecting human head skins?
@@rootsharp9946 what kind of comment even is this?
@rootsharp9946 lmao I hope your day gets better my man
I love that one refused to break due to….you’re own engineering giving you the middle finger. “Ha! You designed me too well!”
like making a robot thats super strong but has a fatal flaw to stop it from going rogue and betraying humanity, but then the robot destroys this flaw by recoding itself or something?
Lol, don't give the AI ideas
@@thisisnotahandle1337 Also a plot point in the Incredibles...
Brick Technology in his Ivan Drago voice: _i must break you_
He is own engineering? What does that mean?
8:25 sick beat!
Netflix: Are you still watching?
Someone's daughter: 0:27
What's fascinating to me is most of those mechanisms were working just fine at super high RPM, it was the regular bricks holding them in place that broke from the vibrations!
6:07 I'd totally buy that
Her: "I've never done this before"
Also her: 0:27 2:27 3:01 3:22 5:52
the motor used to destroy all of these is the only one ive owned. definitely hard to build something for it without a lot of gear reductions
One of the few channels where I will never skip the sponsored part! Not only because your Videos are such high quality, but also because you even made some "animation" for the ad. Keep it up!
Wow, thank you!
@@BrickTechnology minor detail that VPN companies lie about, but if you are HTTPS (vs http) your connection to a server is secure!! (just make sure the server itself isn't out to get you!!!)
P.S. i love all the videos of IRL engineering into legos. rly helps me understand!!! love the content
@@BrickTechnology Hey, why don't you combine the air-pressure engine and the gear box to make a super cool motor car???
8:04 it just crawls away lol
7:18 that one piece: "hey im back what'd i mis- OH GOD"
My favourite one pre-breaking was that purple wave machine. My favourite breaking was the wheel one that came before it - it was coming right at us! And what a lovely cat. A lot of very satisfying mechanisms indeed!
7:53: surprisingly, that's a very reliable transmission mechanism
someone was thinking outside the box on that one (and I used to believe I was clever with mechanisms)
I'm extremely happy seeing this channel grow! So many absolutely wonderful ideas... Thank you for making my evening with a yet another project :D
This video can teach us an important lesson about finding the right balance in our lives. Just like the Lego structures in the video, we all have our own internal "motors" that power us forward in life. These motors can come in the form of our ambitions, our goals, our passions, and our desire to succeed.
But just like in the video, if we push ourselves too hard or too fast, we can end up causing damage and breaking down. We need to find the right balance of speed and strength in our lives, so that we can keep moving forward without sacrificing our health, happiness, or relationships.
This means learning to listen to our own bodies and minds, and paying attention to the warning signs when we're pushing ourselves too hard. It means setting realistic goals and expectations for ourselves, and giving ourselves time to rest and recharge when we need it.
So remember, just like the Lego structures in the video, we all have the power to build amazing things with our lives. But it's up to us to find the right balance and use our internal motors in a way that's sustainable and healthy for the long term.
That was hands down the best integrated ad spot I've ever seen. Bravo.
loved that destruction sequence at the end of the video, really entertaining. Also, do any of these mechanisms have any real life use? Would love to know. :)
best real life use i could think of are some really interesting features on GBC modules. Im also not an expert by any means, just some random idiot on the internet :)
The mechanism that turns the output in 90 degree jumps is the kind of thing used in a movie projector to move the film. Lets you use a continuous motor to get an intermittent output. That type of mechanism is called a Geneva Drive
i think 0:13 is used but i dont remember for what, some sort of curved piston thingy. think it was a dam or hydraulic system but i dunno
The one with the clear cylinders looks like a paint mixer, the one that didnt break is for making strong uv joints for large models, and everything else i saw is either really niche or not good in lego due to rigidity
A lot of these mechanisms, not all of them, but a lot of them have or did serve a use. There were a lot of Universal Joints in the video, which allows for translating movement in a direction offset to the axis of the drive.
For instance, in cars, when you turn your steering wheel, due to universal joints the wheels can rotate in place instead of having to move way much, thus not changing the point of contact meaning the wheels no matter in which direction they face, will push on the exact same piece of road as if they were stationary.
And without Universal joints good luck having an axle rotating the wheels and having to move the entire axle instead of just the wheels.
7:03 this would be a great 6 flags ride
I'd love to see the nested squares filled with ball bearings while it runs, that would be interesting
I love how amazed (or confused) the cat is at the end 😂
5:40 looks like a torturing device
Or looks like a centrifuge for astronauts
It's a fun device
@@A_void. understood
It’s the harlequin thing from six flags which is a torture device
3:54 is a great demo of a change-point mechanism
All of these would be super helpful for a kinematics class as well, not to mention machine design because they demonstrate the importance of vibrations, balance, and good joints
Destruction in slow-mo in D Major was my favorite part!
The cat should have received a treat for keeping an eye on that contraption.
how do you build the machine at 0:27 but like 3 times bigger? ( asking for a friend )
🤨🤨🤨????
Omagad , bro , HELL no , wha the f#ck man.
I was also wondering this
I cannot help you my friend
*sighs* checks comments
3:32, looks fun
I would like to express my compliments on your attention to detail! The music used in the destruction sequence was actually in the key of D, very good job!
This was the most satisfying video Ive seen this year. And I love the chaos with classical music at the end
Item 13 is a "Balls out" RPM/Speed governor from the Steam powered days. The last little red flag could have been tied to a friction brake and made to bump into the gray disk at its base. Nice build on an old object.
I was kinda disappointed he didn’t link it to the speed input
@@matthewpauls2498 clutch or the gray disk would have had the same effect on the shaft speed.
You may be interested to know speed governors are still common place with constant speed propellers on aircraft! They are an ingenious little contraption
@@joshua2848 the idea or use of a governor is every where... not sure what you were getting at.
Broken timing belt lol
The ripple mechanism (6:00) creates such a cool visual effect
Kinda looks sus ngl
Drop a stone into the water and so the effect is sus? Maybe it’s just you
@@Artem925uathere is no charitable way to interpret this
Destruction starts at 6:25 you can always go back and look at them in mor detail if you are interested.
It's nice to know that gmod is accurate to irl physics of what happens when you add too much power
3:21
I'm going to need a larger scale version of this machine for research purposes.
i was searching for someone to say it xddd
5:06 That reminds me of the scene when Chell is getting transported towards the incinerator in Portal
exactly :D I really laughed there
GLaDOS: you will be baked and then there will be cake
*the cake is a lie*
I love how your cats are always interested in what you're doing
You are such a creative mind coming up with all those ideas what to construct. Lovely to see.
Happy that you are getting sponsors, you've put in a ton of work. Congrats on your success man!
5:07 "Rest assured, that there is absolutely no chance of a dangerous equipment malfunction prior to your victory candescence."
I feel like this is a portal reference because of the mechanic
Bye, Karem
i was looking for this comment lul
The geneva mechanism 4:35 is really useful for intermittent motion like a tool changer cnc or for a ton of gear ratio in a small space like in watch wind stops
thanks for that last bit, the music underneath it gave it a comical kinda vibe, loved it :D
3:21 that one is dirty and you all know it. 😂
But if speed up... Oh wait, today is no nut
@@nurtasnoob but 12 days is nut
Everyone on December 1st be like
What is it?
“I may not have a brain gentlemen…but I have an idea”
2:25
Can you make this one big enough to fit something the size of a banana?
Oh.
the legussy
Ohohhh
Yes 😈
😏
I feel like this is how lego employees spend their breaks to stay positive, they just watch this.
im only here for the funky movements
and im all for it
everything got more entertaining from 6:22 😂😂👍
This is actually a really good example of manufacturing tolerances & balancing at high speed.
putting a mechanism through the stress of a really fast and powerful motor is actually a good durability test
4:24 reminds me so much of time signatures and different rhythms in music👏
The powerful motor launched the girl over the fire. 7:39
Sucking that much power is gods blessing -said by a female
2:32 RIP Heisenberg
yo mista white
Waltz of the flowers are pretty amazing!
I love the one at 3:32 it just looks so smooth and weird! Almost like an attraction
7:15 and this is why when we make bigger version of these mechanisms or want them to be more reliable we use stuff like steel and lots of Greece, I was actually thinking how half the stuff in this video I recognise from tinkering over the years, I consider myself to be quite lucky that when something would break my mum would let me take it apart I’ve never become an engineer or mechanic but it have let me learn how stuff was meant to work and saved us quite a bit of money over the years when I’ve fixed things that would normally have been thrown out or have to pay to get them repaired.
this guy's voice is the most perfect I've heard for testimonials ong
Really love your designs and the sense of humor you put into them
I love the ‘governor’ unit at 3:02 🤙 When I took the test prior to joining the Navy, for their Nuclear program, it had questions like…if hear (a) turns sound so, then what does each gear do through gear (zzz). Hard but, doable problems. When I joined the Army and went into the prime power production MOS, had to take a test similar to the Navy Nuke test…gear problems. Great video. Practical displays. 👍👊
As a Lego designer and engineer, this is amazing, great work!
Thanks! 😃
7:30 eye watering
Cool video. I also really appreciate how you actually make the sponsorship part of the video interesting.
The way everything just flies apart... beautiful.
That went from extremely satisfying to chaos real fast 😂
C H A O S YOU SAY?
6:17 talk about delivering what the thumbnail + title were about. That thing is the best!
6:50 - 6:55:
I got a genuine chuckle just watching the mini figure falling down in the background.
Lego and Tchaikovsky ... nice combo bro
2:12 oh my gosh this was so satisfying
Helicopter thing
Fantastic work!
Thanks a lot!
The Geneva mechanism moves exactly every 2 seconds, yet the cat is surprised every time.
6:10 Is my favourite.
The Kubrick ending is pure poetry.
You could probably make a kinetic art exhibition out of these. Some of these are absolutely beautiful and mesmerizing.
6:55 my washing machine:
After i leave a penny in my pants and didn’t know
A lot of the contraptions were so satisfying 😩.
I think the box destruction is unmatched. It’s just hilarious
This went from relaxing to one of the best Lego videos I’ve ever seen. Loved the destruction. It was much more satisfying than most videos because you got to see everything working first. Love it
The reason that all of them broke at the end is because the motor caused so much vibration that the contraptions wiggled them selves apart, but if proper counter weights were added, I think them would last longer.
The montage at the end ... this video is a masterpiece.
“No lego -contraptions- mechanisms were harmed during the making of this video”
I stopped everything I was doing to watch this video because I know that this channel produces such high quality content. Nice job 😃👍
Wow, thanks!
Bob's surgery patient may have flatlined on the table in his absence, but at least he got to watch a Brick Technology video.
Friend: "How's it going?"
Me: "Okay."
How it's actually going: 7:15
The slow motion with the music was perfect !
