Man, the original Rube would be jealous. Those are excellent.
 

1. What is a Rube Goldberg machine?

A Rube Goldberg machine is a contraption that uses a series of complex and often unnecessary steps to accomplish a simple task. It is named after American cartoonist Rube Goldberg, who was known for drawing humorous illustrations of such machines.

2. How do you come up with the ideas for your Rube Goldberg machines?

I draw inspiration from everyday objects and tasks. Sometimes I start with a simple task and then brainstorm ways to make it more complicated and entertaining. Other times, I come across interesting objects or materials and think about how I can incorporate them into a machine.

3. How long does it take to build a Rube Goldberg machine?

The time it takes to build a Rube Goldberg machine varies depending on the complexity of the machine. Some may take a few hours to build, while others can take several days or even weeks. It also depends on the materials and resources available.

4. What are some common challenges you face when building Rube Goldberg machines?

One of the biggest challenges is ensuring that each step of the machine works perfectly and leads smoothly into the next. This often requires a lot of trial and error, as well as adjustments and fine-tuning. Another challenge is finding the right materials and tools to create the desired effects and movements.

5. What do you hope people take away from watching your Rube Goldberg machines?

I hope people are entertained and amazed by the creativity and ingenuity behind Rube Goldberg machines. Additionally, I hope it inspires people to think outside the box and see the potential in everyday objects and tasks. It's also a great way to learn about physics and engineering concepts in a fun and interactive way.
