Magnets and Marbles Roll Their Way Through an Elaborate Rube Goldberg Style Track

It’s hard to take your eyes off this awesome video from Kaplamino, via laughingsquid.

Hey ! After 3 domino videos, Marbomino is back 😉
In this project, I use those little magnets that can be used to make cubes and others geometric figures, I think the name is “Neocube”.

It’s really impressive how many tricks you can do with that, at the beginning I didn’t think that I could make a whole project based on those magnets, but finally, it was pretty easy and I think there is still lots of cool tricks to discover !

I like this kind of video when I can’t do what I want, I’m forced to think of tricks with magnets in that case. It’s the opposite of my video “Random screen link” when I just build all the thing that come to my mind, constraints are good for the creativity it allows to find original tricks that no one has thought (I think, because I’ve never seen something like this on youtube). It reminds me my project “The New Trick” after rubber bands, let’s use magnets 😉
