There has not been a great deal of public discussion about having a Great Ball
Contraption at BrickFest '06, but there WILL be a GBC at BF06.
If you missed your chance last year, when we had almost fifty modules, now is
the time to start building. It doesn't have to be a big module with lots of
functions. Actually, those are usually the first to break down.
In fact, it doesn't have to be anything fancy, or exciting. Once the whole
thing is up and running, very few modules stand out, no matter how good (or bad)
they are. The true joy is watching them all work together.
If you're wondering exactly what a Great Ball Contraption is, check out this
page: http://www.teamhassenplug.org/GBC/
Or, this one: http://www.greatballcontraption.com/
If you'd like to see a little footage from last year's BrickFest, check out
Jordan Bradford's video: http://www.blockpartymod.com/brickfest/
Or look at the bottom of the TeamHassenplug page (above).
If you're planning on bringing a module to BrickFest, please send me an e-mail,
or add your GBC MOC to the BrickFest website.
Thanks
Steve
ps Several people have asked me to send them soccer balls. Sorry for the delay,
they will be sent soon.
