It's been a while since the first chain reaction videos were uploaded to YouTube, and the tricks from those videos don't seem as inspiring as they once were. But what if that could change? That's the goal of Machine Fusion.
I made a list of 10 classic tricks, paired them up in absurd combinations, and made 5 mini-machines to demonstrate how those two ideas could be fused together into an entirely new trick. I want to prove that there is still inspiration to be gained from classic machine tricks, you just have to be daring enough to try things that initially seem impossible.
Machine Fusion is a long-term collaboration with cwdreactions. We have been planning this collaboration for a long time, and we're very excited to share it with you! This video is Part 1, cwdreactions released Part 2 in January 2020, and hopefully Part 3 will be an in-person collaboration! Stay tuned for that, and be sure to subscribe to cwdreactions if you aren't already!

This machine was my 4th quarter project for my drafting class at school. I have that class between 2-3 periods every day, and I got to work on it for the entire class time. Even still, it took me about 6 weeks to put the entire machine together.
Special Thanks to:
Mr. Rannikko
Mr. Rathier
Everyone else who stopped by and told me how awesome the machine was!
