For the best videos in the history of YouTube. All sh.itjust.works server rules apply here. This is an archival community so moderation will be strict to keep the quality of posts at a consistently high level.

Some Rules

  1. No reposts unless it's been over 12 months and the original post wasn't highly upvoted.
  2. Tag NSFW
  3. Videos must be from before 2018. If they have been deleted and reuploaded, please make a note of that.
  4. Videos need not be originally from YouTube. If they were uploaded to some other platform (atomfilms, ebaumsworld, newgrounds) but fit the definition of an internet classic, that's fine. But you must post a link to a YouTube reupload, not to another website.

Did he ever finish Marble Machine X? I stopped watching, it just kept going and going and going.

I used to watch regularly, until he just kept rebuilding the same pieces over and over again. It was starting to feel like he didn't really have a plan and was just milking the viewership.

Afaik X got scrapped but he's trying again "the right way". A recent quote he took to heart is "perfect is the opposite of done", and he's making good strides. Not that any learnings from MMX got lost of course, he's taking all that along, but now he has a clear goal in mind every step instead of just playing with his toys.

Not really, I think. I stopped watching when he decided to scrap the one with similar format and start over with something that looked like it will be at least 4 meters wide.

He scrapped that one and is starting over again.

I like how mechanical, complex, and just plain weird it is!

I know I saw this on some TV show, I swear it was on Mr. Rogers but that had to be like 40+ years ago. Must be something else. Pretty cool though!
