  Re: The Great Ball Contraption (was Re: Rolling ball clock revisited)
 
(...) There will be a minimum throuhgput to solve that. Right now, we're testing with 1 ball/second. So, the very first module will be regulated to run somewhere just below that speed.

  Re: anyone know where I can find this part in australia?
 
A word about the part reference provided by bricklink to peeron - this is incorrect, as bricklink and peeron do not use the same part numbers. The peeron part number for this part is (URL) - they are found both in 6180 and 6199, however, finding (...) (21 years ago, 9-Dec-04, to lugnet.loc.au)

My father worked for the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture, and with that I was introduced to virtually every aspect of farming as a child growing up.
