Knex Ball Machine: Elysium

- Hello everyone!
I am proud to present you my big ball machine Elysium. It is the biggest and most complex machine I have made so far. There are some unique features like a moving floor, 8 new lifts, and multiple new elements.
The lowest floor is not like any other white knex ball machine floor, as it is motorized. The floor makes random movements, so you never know where the balls will end. The surface itself is also different than white connector floors: this one is a combination of white a red connectors. This pattern was much more flexible, necessary to make it move.
If you want more than a moving floor, take this: All lifts in this machine are new. 9 lifts in total, 8 new lifts, because one lift has been used twice. Some of them are small and simple, others are bigger and more complex. The last lift also serves as a path separator.
Besides the new lifts, there are also multiple new elements. You can find one new path separator as well.
Because this machine's networks are not very clear and interconnected, the video is split up in so called 'parts'. There are 4 parts in total. This machine has 18 paths and 7 connections. Connections are smaller paths (that are not really long enough to be called paths) that connect one part to another. Here's an overview:
Part 1: 2 lifts, 4 paths
Part 2: 3 lifts, 3 paths, 2 connections
Part 3: 3 lifts, 5 paths, 3 connections
Part 4: 1 lift, 6 paths, 2 connections

Elysium won the second prize in the knex contest! Thanks to everyone who voted, it is much appreciated!
Thanks for your time, thanks for watching, and I hope you enjoyed!
~Sandroknexmaster~
This is just amazing! The fact that there are 8 new lifts is incredible. And the element at 9:25 is awesome.
+Thibault Art Thanks!
I can barely express how amazing this is... Wow, respect.
Thanks a lot :)
Don't get me wrong, Austin Granger does good work, but if these were made of precious metals, Austron's would be copper, and this would be platinum! The amount of time, mechanical skill, technical knowhow, and building skills executed here is incredible. Fantastic work, Sandro! This is worthy of an art gallery showing.
Mechanicsnut Thanks for the compliment and thanks for subscribing!
That's your opinion, I don't know if you can/should compare them though, because the style is a bit different. Mine are freestanding, Austin makes around the room ball machines. Both types require skill, and both types have their possibilities, diffuculties etc. Everyone has his favourites, I'm happy to hear that you like my work :)
I Dont KOEN !!! I'm busy with other stuff currently, maybe later I will post some new things :)
Damn sure you are THE knex master!!
gieterforce Ha thanks! :)
It looks awesome! It's amazing how many new and unique elements you always put in your machines. I really liked the V-shaped lift where the ball alternated between the arms. The video is very well made too, but I would've really liked to see a overview clip of the whole machine running.
Sathothy Thanks!
It's so big, and it doesn't always work very well, an overview isn't really possible.
Such machine! Many new stuff! A lot pieces!
Really cool machine, especially the zig zag ball arm and the spiral loop.
Koolcoasterkid Very thanks!
Unbelievable, you did a very great job, keep going like this.
I like your moving floor so much, and all your new lifts,
It's awesome. :)
15knexLaz Thanks! :)
15 May is my birthday. I saw it linked into the description.
Great ball machine I love all the new lifts and the element at 9:26 I hope to finish my ball machine to as an amazing standard as yours ;)
Northern Fields Thanks! :)
Beautiful
Griffin Umrigar Thanks!
Very nice. The machines get better and better. I'm glad to see the fire is still burning :)
+Armtek 2012 Thanks! :)
this is incredible, I used to be into this (I'm actually speedydog550 idk if you remember me, wasn't as popular as you ahah) just thought I'd check back see how people like you and others are doing and this is mental! nice job ;)
Beef Purple I used to build more about a year and a halve ago, I don't have a lot of time currently but I still have some stuff from this machine in my room. I still hope to post them some time, just don't know when. And yes I remember you, you were one of my first followers :)
good job m8
Jochen Eeckhoudt Thanks!
sweet I love videos like this and you just took it to another level, plus nice music
Thank you!

Alexis Lepage Thanks!
Sandroknexmaster I subscribe :D
Alexis Lepage Thanks :)
Sandroknexmaster your welcome
Wow! Just wow!
The amount of innovative paths on this machine is incredible!
I love how you create new stuff all the time.
Ben je trouwens Belg of Nederlander?
+Kevin van der Velden Thanks! Belgian :)
It's confusing but either way awesome paths, lifts and other things
Thanks!
dees is gewoon zotnice gemaakt makker :o
The96jonse ha merci! :)
I’m just surprised that that big arm is able to free-fall once it gets overbalanced on one side and not smash into pieces. Is that superglued or something?
No glue, just standard knex pieces. It doesn't fall from that high. I never had any problems with parts breaking because of the fall.
@@Sandroknexmaster Ok. I was just wondering, but Knex seem pretty strong.
its a little bit wtf your machine but its soooo imaginative and cool (=
Alexis Lepage Thanks :p
svp montre nous beaucoups de ces elements ou lifts sur instructables
Alexis Lepage Je ferai mon mieux, normalement la plupart aura des instructions.
Sandroknexmaster cool
Where does everyone get those Knex balls?

How do you mean? The connections between the networks?
Yes. Why? I would use it in my birthday. My birthday is May 15, 2008.
