Tomas Eklund he mentioned, that even tho he enjoys making videos very much he also doesnt want to pump out a video every week. He feels that it would be better if he just uploaded, when there is something awsome to share. Also he mentioned, that he wants to try to spend less time on his smartphone. A digital detox, so to say. Im also quite curious what is comming next about the mmx
You are by far my wood working idol. I've learned a lot of tips and tricks from your videos that I've utilized in my own DIY projects around the home. Thanks for your informative and interesting videos.
I have loved your marble blocks and marble pump with my kids for years. This is too cool. I appreciate the musical quality you added in with the metal and different wood elements. I love your work.
Mathias you rock! Hope you get past the tendinitis soon and get back to making. Till then it’s great to see you revisiting past projects bringing fresh eyes and that open minded critical and reflective approach: top class!
Another great resin video! My wife actually wants us to get some resin and have a play in the workshop soon. All these videos you’ve been doing recently have been a huge inspiration! Thanks 😁
I made this from your plans several years ago. It is on a table in my mud room. Everyone who comes through the door plays with it. I’m ready for another one!
Just in time for Christmas! I think every Grandfather should make one of these for his grandchildren so they have a showpiece to remember him by loooong after he's gone :) YOU Matthias Wandel are the man to follow and learn from. Thanks for linking the plans and details. So, a couple of hours you think? :) Excellent in every possible way, if I start tomorrow, I may have it finished by Christmas Eve, with me luck! A+++ Thumbs UP as always!
When I was young, my grandfather made a simple marble run for me out of strips of molding with simple linoleum "curves". It was totally manual - put the marbles in at the top and they'd roll down the switchbacks to the bottom pie pan and be collected. It was one of my favorite toys and one that I've never forgotten! That was entertainment in the early 50's! Good luck with your design and build. Your grand kids will love it!
@@petemac7969 I found a marble pin-ball machine in my grandparents attic and it was basically a spring launcher (verticle rack) and the marbles simply bounced from pin to pin on their way down to the bottom and fell into random slats that had alphabet and # marks on them. Maybe for early gambling? I sat in that attic and marveled at something so old, with the craftsman's hand evident in the construction and finish painted details. Wish I'd asked to have it, but it's gone. I'm inspired.
I really liked the original series but I also love the freshness of this one, same with your box joint jig build. I think editing is something that takes time to get right and 12 years have been very good to you in that respect (although your editing has always been top-notch). Really glad to see that you're keeping active on TH-cam with what you can do despite the arm issues.
1. I bet it was great to see your old marble machine come out of storage after moving house. 2. Good for you for storing/backing-up the old video properly. 3. I love your longer videos.
Oh my gosh, I remember this machine from years and years ago when I was reading your old website as a kid! That was one of my favorite websites, back in the days where a kid could have "favorite websites".
The marble machine, along with the marble binary calculator, was what brought me to Matthias Wandel's channel, so many years ago. They still are fascinating pieces of machinery.
This format is more efficient, yes, but also misses the in-depth explanations and occasionally very satisfying moments of the earlier video series. Thank you for making both.
@@matthiaswandelI did this week! Years ago when I first found your channel, I watched the prior videos. Thank you again for making them, you helped me figure out some sticky problems in my own projects at the time.
Ich habe die Murmelmaschine nachgebaut und dem Kindergarten geschenkt. Danke für die Pläne Matthias, die ich bei dir kaufen konnte und die tolle Idee!!!
i'm glad you are finding cool stuff to do on your channel when you need to be resting your muscles, and i'm glad that I get to be reminded of this project.
Reading the English closed caption is the funniest part of any of Matthias' videos. It goes to show that what you say is not actually what someone hears.
In video marble machine 3.0 Matthias will add an Esscher like construction that will make the marbles appear at the top again, once they get to the bottom, making turning the cogwheel obsolete. It defies gravity but if one man can do it, it's Matthias. Great build, good luck with the tendinitis
I appreciate your efforts to condense these projects to make them more palatable to a wider viewerbase but I must say that I really enjoyed the longer and more verbose multipart videos. The original series on the marble machine was a very good watch. Thanks, always look forward to your uploads!
Nice video rebuild Matthias! An excellent overview for those who do not know of, or are not prepared to watch, your original videos on the subject. If they intend to build I expect they will watch those too. I really like the thought you put into your products and the attention to detail in your builds. I think your product makes attractive entertainment for both adults and children!
the sound on the "xyloboard' part was great! I hope you do more wood working projects with musical wooden plates. I bet you could make something that sounds amazing.
Awesome! Your ingenuity never seizes to amazing me! Quick tip.. if you eat a bunch of Taco Bell late at night before bed, you can become a human Dump-o-matic when you wake up in the morning. 🤣
Your videos are the first on my list to watch when posted. you have such a great imagination. Have you thought about a video on how your thought process works when designing your complicated machines? I for one would love to hear it.
Nice, what a great idea to edit your previous content. This was a great video. The details were just enough and the narration was great. I will be trying to build this myself in the future.
This is actually what got me onto your channel, I dont think the originals are too long, but I enjoyed rewachting this despite being briefly disapointed that youndidnt make a new one :)
Keep up the good work. Subscribed, liked, and appreciated. Very like to watch this. This man always knows what to make. Give him a bandsaw, drill press and a few other tools and some materials, he will make you anything And with 1 million subs you don't put ads, don't have any nonsense intros and outros, which only a few channels managed to stay good.
Love that figure 8 gear lift.
No demagnetizer necessary :)
Nice so see martin here 😊
@@homunkoloss6782 Nice to see he's alive! I was a bit worried.
Tomas Eklund he mentioned, that even tho he enjoys making videos very much he also doesnt want to pump out a video every week. He feels that it would be better if he just uploaded, when there is something awsome to share. Also he mentioned, that he wants to try to spend less time on his smartphone.

@@matthiaswandel too true, too very true :)
6:20 “Retroactive Precision” - my new favorite phrase 😂
Austin McCleery I LOLed and actually it’s kind of true-no more wiggle!
I concur!
Yeah I'm going to use that one for sure
Apparently I use a lot of retroactive precision in my woodworking. Never knew it.
I feel Retroactive Precision, Percussive Maintenance and Iterative Planning are the cornerstones of my professionalism.
You are by far my wood working idol. I've learned a lot of tips and tricks from your videos that I've utilized in my own DIY projects around the home. Thanks for your informative and interesting videos.
This is a good revisit to your older videos, I remember watching them all in a row while out sick from school. Love your stuff!
I have loved your marble blocks and marble pump with my kids for years. This is too cool. I appreciate the musical quality you added in with the metal and different wood elements. I love your work.
Mathias you rock!
Hope you get past the tendinitis soon and get back to making. Till then it’s great to see you revisiting past projects bringing fresh eyes and that open minded critical and reflective approach: top class!
"I just find gears very satisfying"
- Matthias Wandel
I do too.
Especially wooden gears, which are drop-dead-GORGEOUS!
@ they are indeed. I like making them too
Felenov-official I find gears and graphs very satisfying
Another great resin video! My wife actually wants us to get some resin and have a play in the workshop soon. All these videos you’ve been doing recently have been a huge inspiration! Thanks 😁

Frederick Dunn - Let us know how it turns out!
@@donmiller2908 I'll happily share, but it's going to be quite primitive compared to these master woodcrafters, I'll do my best :)

Yo I had to check if my car was getting towed away
Nicely Done, Matt; We have missed you!
Always hated marble machines... Until now! Thank you :)

Really glad to see that you're keeping active on TH-cam with what you can do despite the arm issues.
Everyone should like this video. It's well done and shows the results of hours of tedious work by a skilled craftsman. Great job Matt!
1. I bet it was great to see your old marble machine come out of storage after moving house. 2. Good for you for storing/backing-up the old video properly. 3. I love your longer videos.
I've been waiting for this for like 4 years. Watching marble machines probably are the reason I like woodworking now lol
i do love marble machines this is where i start watching your videos when your first marble machine
Oh my gosh, I remember this machine from years and years ago when I was reading your old website as a kid! That was one of my favorite websites, back in the days where a kid could have "favorite websites".
might be 24 years ago now that I wrote about marble machine 2!
Someone should study how Matthias's videos drain productivity around the world! This is my valium.
The marble machine, along with the marble binary calculator, was what brought me to Matthias Wandel's channel, so many years ago. They still are fascinating pieces of machinery.
There’s a marble binary calculator?
@@mcMineoc Yep, it's a binary adder. Check Matthias' list of videos - it should be some 6, or more, years old.
This format is more efficient, yes, but also misses the in-depth explanations and occasionally very satisfying moments of the earlier video series. Thank you for making both.
you can still watch the earlier series. But you watched this instead!
@@matthiaswandelI did this week! Years ago when I first found your channel, I watched the prior videos. Thank you again for making them, you helped me figure out some sticky problems in my own projects at the time.
Having watched this, I now need to watch the 12 part series. I need more hours in my day.
Mathias Wandelgatan was the original marble guy
I'll be honest, the tunes aren't as good
@@cambrown5633 I suppose it was never intended as music machine but a bit of "post production" sound processing could help getting there
I'll be honest, I thought the 34-second video earlier today WAS Wintergatan!
Wintergatan has said in the past that Matthias was the inspiration for his marble machines.
@@steve0face I confirm that, he also uses Matthias' gear design program
After watching this I have the itch to buy more power tools for my shop. Great Video
The machine was fun to watch, but my greatest satisfaction came from seeing the tools, the craftsmanship, the innovation.
Ich habe die Murmelmaschine nachgebaut und dem Kindergarten geschenkt. Danke für die Pläne Matthias, die ich bei dir kaufen konnte und die tolle Idee!!!
Your marble machine videos are the first ones TH-cam recommended to me, and why I subscribed to your channel.
Nice to see you back making stuff and videos.
i'm glad you are finding cool stuff to do on your channel when you need to be resting your muscles, and i'm glad that I get to be reminded of this project.
The original marble machine and easily the best!
Reading the English closed caption is the funniest part of any of Matthias' videos. It goes to show that what you say is not actually what someone hears.
In video marble machine 3.0 Matthias will add an Esscher like construction that will make the marbles appear at the top again, once they get to the bottom, making turning the cogwheel obsolete.
It defies gravity but if one man can do it, it's Matthias.
Great build, good luck with the tendinitis
The marble machine x is really coming along!
Dude that is. One cool machine. You are a genius.
I only started watching your videos last year and this still makes me feel some nostalgia.
I could watch you all day. I made the gears for my marble machine after watching you make some!!
Your Band Saw build had been my favorite up to now but this has surpassed it. This was so much fun to watch!
This is the sort content youtube is made for. Great work
For me this was very satisfying, it is very stimulating to see that much information presented so rapidly.
Believe it or not, I actually prefer watching the more detailed and lengthy videos. I enjoy watching you work!
Great pace! I'm glad you're still getting new videos out!
I'm not a big user of carbohydrate foam myself, but its great watching a master manipulate it at will.
Un plaisir de regarder tes réalisations !
Bravo l'artiste !!!
A pleasure to watch your achievements!
Bravo the artist !!!
I appreciate your efforts to condense these projects to make them more palatable to a wider viewerbase but I must say that I really enjoyed the longer and more verbose multipart videos. The original series on the marble machine was a very good watch.
Thanks, always look forward to your uploads!
gifted on wood work, level legend . . . fantastic
man you are a genius. even with plans this would probably take me months to build. i love your videos
Glad you’re finding ways to make you’re TH-cam channel still interesting
This is so very cool. Watching a skilled woodworker is always so much fun.
Nice video rebuild Matthias! An excellent overview for those who do not know of, or are not prepared to watch, your original videos on the subject.

I find gears satisfying too.
Almost as satisfying as watching your videos. Thank you for posting. I know it’s not easy.
aaaah...memories of that cellar workspace....those were the days my friend...those were the days.... :(
I doubt I’ll ever make this but very satisfying watching you make it! Thank you for the upload! Love it!
the sound on the "xyloboard' part was great! I hope you do more wood working projects with musical wooden plates. I bet you could make something that sounds amazing.
You and Wintergatan should have an marble challenge showdown!
Master engineer and a true artist.
I watched the whole ad cause this guy deserves money for what he does haha
Best chanel on youtube wandel you the man
Thank you for the captions, Matthias. I really do appreciate them.
Something very satisfying about watching you build stuff like this. Very cool
This is surprisingly satisfying to watch
As usual .. You have turned carpentry into artistry !!
"The videos were way too long"
I like your long form presentations, Matthias
Awesome! Your ingenuity never seizes to amazing me! Quick tip.. if you eat a bunch of Taco Bell late at night before bed, you can become a human Dump-o-matic when you wake up in the morning. 🤣
Nice work Matt! I really need to get off the couch and build one for my grandkids.
You are a woodworking genius my friend.
Seen your video of this before and still love it. Great remake.
This would be a tough video to edit, you did a great job. I really enjoyed this well done, cool machine. 👍🏼
Unbelievable, thank you for taking the time to share with us.
I originally subbed after watching your marble machine videos. Good to see them return, would love to see new similar content as well.
Lots of clever bits on this project. I enjoy watching all your videos.
Outstanding. I watched this video at 2x speed baked in my room at one am and i loved it
You're one smart man! Thank you for making these videos and sharing your knowledge with us
Your videos are the first on my list to watch when posted. you have such a great imagination. Have you thought about a video on how your thought process works when designing your complicated machines? I for one would love to hear it.
Nice, what a great idea to edit your previous content. This was a great video. The details were just enough and the narration was great. I will be trying to build this myself in the future.
My browsing always leads me back to this man.
Wow, awesome, very good project for Christmas for grand kids.. thank you Mr. Wandel.
Wintergatan would be proud. Thanks for the video.
Well, Mathias was one of Martins inspirations for his first MM, so I assume so :)
Excellent editing/speed up !
Really enjoyed this video reminiscent of PBS's Alone in the wilderness. Keep up the great work, and Thanks for the video
Your marble machine is a thing of beauty. Did your ancestors invent the coo coo clock?
Very cool! I'm always excited to get a notification from you!
"retroactive precision" is probably the best line I heard all day
My favorite....no parts made with a a CNC machine! Excellent!
you are a gifted craftsman. thank you
I like this crazy machine, think if I can download the plans. Thanks for showing. Best regards Peter
This is actually what got me onto your channel, I dont think the originals are too long, but I enjoyed rewachting this despite being briefly disapointed that youndidnt make a new one :)
I like your long videos with a slow, smooth pace 😊 Today, all videos are slick...
Keep up the good work.
Subscribed, liked, and appreciated.
Very like to watch this.
This man always knows what to make. Give him a bandsaw, drill press and a few other tools and some materials, he will make you anything
And with 1 million subs you don't put ads, don't have any nonsense intros and outros, which only a few channels managed to stay good.
If you gave this project to a student of woodwork they would learn every aspect of carpentry.
This guy!!....retroactive precision..
You are a woodworking genius.
Amazing :o you should get a hamster and connect the end to a hamster wheel, so whenever he goes running it will run the device :D
As impressive as always, Mathias!
Thanks for sharing!
Can you please do a video of you just cranking this for hours? It's too satisfying to only see a few minutes of it working all at once 🤤😂
I love this machine and really enjoyed the reworked video.
quality craftsmanship, i bet this took quite a lot of time to plan and put together.
Congratulations on the project
In my opinion I’m from uk I think everyone would agree that Matthias should receive a knighthood for services to woodworking.
I can think of some grand-kids who would enjoy that!
Loved every second of this!
