Domino World 2019: Machine Close-Up

Last week, I had the incredible opportunity of participating in Domino World, the annual domino and machine event organized by bpdoles at the Ann Arbor Hands-On Museum in Ann Arbor, MI. Here is a close-up of the machine I made for the event!

Around halfway through the week of building, I was strongly considering not uploading a close-up video like this because I wasn't all that proud of the machine. At that point, I had built the snake tail track, the gear double pendulum, and the flexing track parallelogram. All three of these tricks are great, but they didn't have a good flow between them, they weren't built in great locations to be easily viewable by the audience, and they were not the best choice for live event tricks. But then I rounded out the building week with three tricks that were the complete opposite: the Mukmobile, the grabby tube, and the magnet tracks. These three fit really well within the machine, had great connections, and were excellent live event tricks. These three tricks turned things around for me and made me like the machine again. So I'm not sure what I learned here, but I guess just because it's a good trick does not mean it's a good live event trick!
