Shifting Sand With LEGO!

I build and test various LEGO machines to try and move as much sand as possible in 2 minutes! Using LEGO and LEGO Technic the designs become increasingly complex!

I can only imagine that sand being rough, coarse and irritating. Plus, I know it'll just get everywhere.

In the case of the bucket, it was necessary to add a conveyor and an incline for the buckets. Then the result would be a technically correct design.

The reason the first bulldozer built drove so poorly was because there wasn't any ground pressure between the 2 wheels, so basically it wasn't much different from just being a wheeled vehicle.

[guntert.]

Bucket Wheet would have been much more effective if you put 8 buckets instead of 4 and a transport band to move the sand to the other side (as MouldKing 17006 or Lego 42055 do)

I think the first one didn't have enough area of support with the ground, and wasn't high enough, leading to the tracks digging into the sand and it getting high centred

You uploaded right when I couldn't find any good videos!

3:27 This is what i wished the 42055 bucket wheel was. Instead we got this sluggish heap that LEGO somehow thought would run off 1 motor.

thats so Lego™ of you

I feel like this was an excuse to just build a bucket wheel. And I loved it.

Your windmill is a great way to explain erosion to people.

The reason the dozer wasn't working is because it kept getting high centered. U needed more ground clearance in the center, bigger wheels for the tracks would of done the trick. When u were measuring the sand it moved, u forgot to add the sand that was up against the retaining wall.

For me the bucket wheel won. Why? I'm sure operating this machine gave You the most fun :D

I love how channels like Brick Technology start popping up the more the merrier

[teldd]

I think I could watch the bucket design go all day :)

[marsrover]

Should send this to my mining engineer friend who's working at a mine in Cali which I'm pretty sure literally just digs up a bunch of sand

[unforade]

these ideas were cool, only haters would say "just break the wall"

So we’re all up at 3-5 AM watching this?

I can appreciate you accidentally ruined the test by just having fun :D very relatable
