Rube Goldberg meets the pinball machine!


I've never played with K'nex construction toys - they came on the market long after my youth - but I'm astonished to find this fully operational pinball machine constructed entirely of the little connectors.





Apparently it took almost four months to build.  Talk about dedication!  I think Rube Goldberg would have been proud of the builders.  All it needs is a bit of brass and steam, and it'd be steampunk!

  2. Pardon me while I go looking for my jaw. I heard it hit the floor but couldn't take my eyes off the screen to see which way it went...
