You may have seen a rube goldberg type contraption on Youtube. They are the devices which include almost every square inch of your house and everything in it and basically keep a flow of movement going from start to finish with out human intervention. Objects such as toasters popping out toast to hit a switch to turn on a flame which burns a string which launches a bowling ball are commonly seen in these devices.
ThinkGeek now brings us a miniature version which allows you to have all the crazy fun at home. The little contraption (video below) is fully customisable and allows you to set a course for the small ball to follow till it hits the finishing marker. 97 parts are included in the box along with 23 different types of mechanisms for the moving marbles. The toy looks great fun 🙂
