My latest MOC, a Technic Claw Machine that dispenses candy:

Nothing particulary new, but it's a nice assembly. Pneumatics are pretty

If you want a roomful of people to pay attention to your Lego creation, have a
dish of candy involved, it works.

(...) A working machine! Excellent! I really like it when a model actually can do something. And it also reminds me of one of the earliest Technic models I had (still have it, the 856) and built nearly 30 yars ago. Yellow is excellent for making (...) (18 years ago, 14-Oct-06, to lugnet.technic)
