Welcome to week 07 of the GBC Observer for 2020. I've just returned from participating in my first collaborative layout for 2020. We did a 3 day show here in Vancouver at Fan Expo where my LUG had a booth where we displayed both Lego GBC and other Moc's. Video forthcoming.
Now onto this weeks interesting GBC videos.
Dunes has created a path splitter for his GBC layout, it uses an Akiyuki style rotating lift to raise the balls up to a ramp where the balls are send either to the left or right depending on the timing. Apparently the timing can be adjusted to split the balls faster or slower via a gearbox.
In this next video, Riku has taken what was an EV3 controlled module by Akiyuki and rebuilt it using only mechanical mechanisms to control the movement. Quite impressive. This situation is very similar to when Pinwheel recreated my Boost Pachinko module without the boost HUB.
Looking to build a simple module that is GBC Standard compliant? Sam F has created this simple conveyor which uses the smaller treads and has some nice features like an anti-jam mechanism if it's run in reverse. Instructions are available in the link in the videos description.
Have a great week everyone.
