Doug,

Very elegant. And Rich, what a spectacular display you've provided us!

Like Rich, I've been trying to simplify mine as much as possible, too. The fewer pieces used the better, with "unpowered" solutions whenever possible. A few examples:

Unpowered Reach Up: http://FantasticContraption.com/?designId=2855977

Unpowered Mind the Gap: http://FantasticContraption.com/?designId=2855884

Unpowered Wall: http://FantasticContraption.com/?designId=2855041

Unpowered On A Roll: http://FantasticContraption.com/?designId=2854797

Unpowered On A Roll (Simpler): http://FantasticContraption.com/?designId=2691204

Unpowered Full Up: http://FantasticContraption.com/?designId=2853885

PS. This is a great way to pass the time while your clients are making copy changes on the other end of the ISDN line. ; )

Hmmmm, the first one CC chooses to post is "Mission to Mars."

Coincidence? I think not.

(Well done, by the way.)

I did real well up to a point and then it was brick wall.. I got most of the free levels ok, after some work... but there was a point where I gave up .. I was then astonished at the complexity of some solutions, then floored by the brilliant simplicity of some... them no powered parts machines are a hoot.. especially the Uturn one...

cheers!

You say "dumb" I say "elegant"!

Gets the job done, doesn't it!?
Super- duper.
