(I also need to
add an update on my ball pump module that I tuned after it failed a few times
during weekend GBB - the new version works flawlessly now)
|
What was the problem?
|
Minor one: the contraption I used to maintain the liftarms forming the ball tube
spaced 2.5 (based on  ) got loose with time,
now replaced with
 +
Major one: the stirring blade was sometimes blocked by a ball half-engaged in
output drain. Either the motor got stalled, or -funnier- the plastic elasticity
built-up energy and BZOIIING! threw balls across the room...
I replaced the liftarm 1x4 with  , enough
to make balls move, but that can easily slide below blocked balls.

through babblefish, and here is my favorite line about the “Grand Bidule à
Balles” (which translates to “Large Thingummy with Balls”)
“...it was fun even if sometimes one has to run after the few balls which
refuse to undergo torture...”
